Painted in the centre with arms of Bannatyne, Gules a chevron argent between three mullets or, quartering clearly Macleod with tinctures reversed, correctly Azure a castle triple towered and embattled argent masoned sable, port gules (but here argent a castle....azure). The crest and mottoes are of Bannatyne, A demi griffin and 'Nec cito, nec tarde' and 'Murus at heneus' - all in a round topped square frame; probably after a book plate.
