The Crest, adopted by the CPMA is a fine example of a 13th Century seal depicting a ship as built and used by the Cinque Ports in providing a fleet of ships for the Monarch, and combining a Mayoral Mace, a staff of office and a symbol of dignity.

Extract from the first page of the Minute Book of the CPMA
An Inaugural Meeting of the Mayors of the Cinque Ports was held at The Town Hall, New Romney, Kent on 28th November 1979 at 10.30 a.m. to discuss a suggestion put forward by Councillor John Hodgson of Hastings: 'To form a Cinque Ports Mayors' Association to enable those who have met as Mayors of Cinque Ports, or Limbs, to continue the friendships and associations made during their Civic Office, and their involvement in the Confederation of the Cinque Ports, also an Association to promote interest and discussion on the subject of the History and Traditions of the Cinque Ports.
