Dieu et mon droit
This phrase adorns the Launceston Custom House, built in 1885 for the sum of 9,000 pounds. "Dieu et mon droit" is a French phrase that observant watches of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's funeral will have recognised as the official motto of the British Royal family. And indeed here the Royal Coat of Arms can also be seen. It's a grand Victorian building that has architectural echoes of both Buckingham Palace and the American White House.
