Mythical birds adorn new Wimborne town crest

WIMBORNE Minster Mayor, cllr Jeff Hart, has unveiled a new-look crest for the town council.

The crest is based on the original emblem which is an exact replica of the one used by the former Wimborne Minster Urban District Council since 1894.

The design was created by Bella Bijou, a Bournemouth University student.

A Wimborne Minster Town Council spokesperson said: “The design includes a pictorial representation of the Minster Church and features Edward the Confessor’s cross, adorned with four martlets (a type of mythical bird without feet).”
