Mortar

Mortar: the guns so called do not seem to be blazoned by this name is any arms, unless those borne by the family of GOTER are meant to represent them: but the ordinary pestle and mortar for some reason has been chosen as an armorial bearing by two families, of one of which there appear to be several branches which bear the pestle and mortar differently.

Azure, three mortars and pestles or--BROKE, co. Warwick.

Sable, three pestles in mortars argent--WAKLEY; Harl. MS. 1404.

Sable, three mortars argent, in each a pestle or--WAKERLEY.
