Arms of the Borough of Worthing
The coat of arms of Worthing includes three fishes, a Horn of Plenty overflowing with corn & fruit on a cloth of gold, and the figure of Hygieia, the Goddess of Health holding a snake. They represent the health given from the seas, the fullness and riches gained from the earth and the power of healing.
The civic motto is 'Ex terra copiam e mari salutem' translated as 'From the land plenty and from the sea health'. (A floor mosaic of this is in the entrance hall of the Town Hall). Postcards are available from Worthing Museum.
