| Object history | The arms in the centre appear to have been added outside the Worcester factory, and to be those of Joseph Todd, of Molesey House, Surrey, who married Lucy, daughter and co-heiress of William Plowes of Wakefield. The arms as blazoned in the 2nd and 3rd quarters were granted to the last-named in 1823. |
