[edit] Summary

Arms of Greater Manchester County Council, 1974 - 1986.

The ten gold towers represent the ten districts of the Metropolitan County. They are enclosed within an embattled bordure, signifying the union of these areas in a single county.

The crest simply features an English lion with a banner of the arms.

The supporters are also English lions, each charged with a red roundel. One roundel is charged with an open book, symbolising learning and education, the other with a French horn for the arts and culture.
