Badge of the municipal borough of Ossett
The borough had no grant of a coat of arms. Instead the corporation adopted a device or of local design to represent the town. The three white roses represent the three ridings of Yorkshire. The four medallions bear emblems representing coal mining (a pit-head), the wool trade (a fleece), manufacturing (factory buildings) and agriculture (a wheatsheaf). Today, only manufacturing has much of a presence in the town.
The Latin motto was Inutile utile ex arte or That which is useless is made useful through skill.[1]
