Waterford in County Waterford, Munster, Ireland — Irish South-West ((Éire) North Atlantic Ocean)
Waterford Arms
This Coat of Arms and Colonnaded Compartment is a replica based upon the original dominant stucco feature of the early eighteenth century “Waterford Arms Hotel” which formerly occupied this site.
Many of the details matched those of the Coat of Arms dated 1720, on view in Reginald’s Tower, and which was used as a source for missing or damaged detail on the original.
The motto “Urbs Intacta Manet Waterfordia”, “The City of Waterford Remains Untaken”, was granted by Henry VII after the siege of 1495 in recognition of the resistance put up by the City against claimants to the Throne.
