The crosses represent the wounds that Christ suffered when He was crucified; the central cross for the wound on His side, and the 4 smaller crosses for the wounds on His hands and feet.
The 5 crosses represent the five nations that figured in The Crusades: Great Britain, France, Spain, Germany and Italy.
