English: Arms Sir Edward Littleton (died 1558), impaling those of his first wife, Helen Swynnerton, on their tomb in St Michael's church, Penkridge, Staffordshire. Swinnerton has been blazoned as Argent, a cross formée, the ends fleury sable or preferably Argent, a cross pattée fleury sable but in this artwork the holiness of Helen Swynnerton is being emphasized by visual allusion to the arms of the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem. Blazon: Baron: quarterly of 4:

• 1st and 4th: Argent, a cross pattée fleury (or, should be sable) (for Swynnerton of Swynnerton, Staffordshire);
• 2nd and 3rd: Argent, a cross pattée fleury (or, should be sable) a bordure engrailed argent (for Swynnerton of Hilton?). Possibly the crosses have merely been repainted with the incorrect tincture, which offends the "rule of tincture" no metal on metal, as the arms of the Kingdom of Jerusalem.
