Halket.
9. A chevron chequé between a hunting horn in dexter chief, a water
budget in sinister chief, and a demi hunting horn combined with a
demi water budget in base, being the shields 1 and 8 dimidiated,

The Church of Renfrew was granted by David I. as a prebend of Glasgow,
and is believed to have stood on the present site.
In 1557 mention is made of the chaplainry of St. Christopher in the Lord
Ross’s Aisle on the south side of the Church of Renfrew. The monument is
situated on the south side of the present church. The Chapel of St.
Christopher was probably connected with the ferry across the Clyde.
