"See [[2017758]] and [[2017860]]. The cockle shell is the emblem of St. James the Great, whose shrine in Spain was a popular centre for pilgrimage in mediaeval times, when pilgrims wore a badge in the shape of a shell in their hats. {Source: The Parish Church of St. James & St. Basil, Fenham - A Guide Book.} See also [[2017885]]."
