The Crompton coat of arms circa 1430  22Kb-gif An alternative Crompton arms are described as a red shield with two wavy horizontal lines through the centre. In the lower half and upper left quarter are three rampant lions and upper right quarter a crescent moon. The crest above the shield is the traditional knight's visor and helmet upon which is a sitting hunting dog.

Caution: The Victoria History of the County of Lancashire (VCH) speculates that several families who settled Crompton used de Crompton as their 'family' name.
