Bar, per and pile	Variants: Bar, per and pile, per Bar and Pile, Fesse, per and Pile, per Fesse and Pile
Divided both per fesse and per pile. More correctly emblazoned per fesse and pile. Because these two ordinaries overlap, this leads to the resulting parts being counterchanged. This is an example of 'and' not meaning conjoined.
Elvin Plate Reference: p. 2 n. 10
