Object history Coat of arms of Betty Boothroyd, The Baroness Boothroyd (1929-2023), Speaker of the House of Commons from 1992 to 2000. This achievement was used from 2005 to 2023. She bears this achievement on a lozenge (as is traditional for a woman), atop the lozenge is a green forget-me-not bow or lovers' knot which indicates that she never married. Above the lovers' knot is the coronet of a British baron (she was created a life peer, taking as her title Baroness Boothroyd of Sandwell in the County of West Midlands in 2001), and below the lozenge hangs the ribbon and insignia of the Order of Merit (to which she was appointed in 2005).

This coat of arms was drawn based on its blazon which – being a written description – is free from copyright. Any illustration conforming with the blazon of the arms is considered to be heraldically correct. Thus several different artistic interpretations of the same coat of arms can exist. Sometimes, the design officially used by the armiger is likely protected by copyright, in which case it cannot be used here.
Individual representations of a coat of arms, drawn from a blazon, may have a copyright belonging to the artist, but are not necessarily derivative works.
