I tried the librarian and she replied immediately:
This crest is not ours (Westminster School) - nor does it appear to be
Winchester's either.

any further suggestions ?

I have checked on the crest, and although there are several instances
of ..'out of an ducal coronet or
a griffin's/eagles head erased two wings expanded' (e.g. Lucas 'Out of
a ducal coronet or, a demi griffin wings expanded gules').... finding
the aforementioned crest 'ducally gorged' is proving more difficult.
