Summary

Description
English: Coat of arms of Fife County Council on Kingdom House in Glenrothes, Scotland, United Kingdom. The arms were granted in 1927, Supporters were added in March 1976 for the Regional Council and July 1, 1997 for the Area Council.


The arms of Fife show a Scottish Knight, and are based on a seal of Duncan, Earl of Fife dating from 1360. The knight has been described as the Thane of Fife. The County Council used only the motto 'Virtute et Opera' (By Virtue and Energy), but no supporters or crown. The motto was used by the clan MacDuff. The Regional Council used as supporters the unicorn common to all Regional Councils, and St. Servanus, patron saint of the Culross Abbey and Fife Burgh. As a crown the coronet for Regional Councils was used.
