Or, on a saltire gules a sword in bend sinister argent, the hilt in base gold surmounted in bend dexter by a pastoral staff of the field.
- From the website: "The Coat of Arms of the Diocese of Chelmsford... This coat combines certain devices from the Arms of the various ecclesiastical jurisdictions under which the ancient County of Essex has been placed. The sword is taken from the Arms of the Diocese of London, the saltire is that of the Diocese of Rochester, and the field has the colour of the golden saltire of St Albans. The pastoral staff marks the episcopal character of the coat."
