Matthew Mole, singer, songwriter Coat of arms The Fish Hoek municipal council adopted a coat of arms, designed by R. McNee Tait, in April 1941. The shield was gold, displaying a silver rampant lion behind a red horizontal stripe. The crest was an arm in armour, holding a sword, emerging from a coronet. The shield was supposed to represent Andries Bruins, while the crest was taken from the arms borne by some members of the De Villiers family. Whether Andries Bruins or Jacob de Villiers ever used these designs is unclear. References Suburbs of Cape Town
