The arms are those of Pulleine impaling those of Hutton, for Henry Pulleine of Carleton Hall, Yorkshire (1734-1803), the second son of Wingate Pulleine of the same. The latter was succeeded initially by his eldest son Thomas Babington Pulleine, but on his death without any male heir, his brother Henry inherited the family estates. Henry Pulleine married Elizabeth, daughter of John Hutton of Marske, Yorkshire on 11 September 1764.
