The Royal Arms of Her Majesty the Queen above the shopfront of Countrywear, Field Sports Outfitters, Bridge Street, Ballater.


The Royal Arms with the inscriptions 'In defens', which is an abbreviated form of 'In my defens God me defend' and 'Nemo me impune lacessit' is the Latin motto of the Order of the Thistle and of three Scottish regiments of the British Army. The motto also appears, in conjunction with the collar of the Order of the Thistle, in later versions of the Royal coat of arms of the Kingdom of Scotland and subsequently in the version of the Royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom used in Scotland. It is often translated as 'No one attacks me with impunity', or rendered in Scots as 'Wha daur meddle wi' me'? ("Cha togar m' fhearg gun dìoladh" in Scottish Gaelic). It is also alternatively translated into English as 'No one can harm me unpunished'. Plaque inscribed 'BY APPOINTMENT TO HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN. FIELDSPORTS OUTFITTERS COUNTRYWARE BALLATER'.
