Day 204 Interesting Coat of Arms

This looks like a skull wearing a crown to me.  We ducked into this little gem church in Winchester to escape a cloud burst and I was stunned by this coat of arms.

St Swithun upon Kingsgate is a Church of England church in WinchesterHampshire, England, built in the Middle Ages in the Early English style. Located above the medieval Kingsgate, one of the principal entrances to the city, the church is unusual in forming a part of the fabric of the old city walls. St Swithun's first appears in 13th century records, and under the fictional name of St Cuthbert's, is mentioned in Anthony Trollope's novel The Warden. (Wikipedia)
