Does anyone know the history of the bloody hand print??
My mum was evacuated to Chirk castle in Cheshire during the war and used to talk about the bloody hand print. Shes passed way now so I cant ask her.

"The coat-of-arms of the Myddelton family is the crowning point of the design over the overthrow of the gates. This incorporates the red "bloody" hand, of the Myddelton family, the three wolves heads and an eagles head. These features are then incorporated further into the design features; eagles heads springing from acanthus scrolls in each of the gates."
Cool -- thanks for asking this, so I could learn something new! Sorry about your mum, though. The link below will take you to a site that has the legends on it. Enjoy.
