I believe the answer is:

ordinary

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'heraldry' is the definition.
(ordinary is a kind of heraldry)

'it's quite usual in' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'in' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ordinary that I've seen before include "Normal or average" , "Not exceptional in any way" , "Common-or-garden" , "Usual - bishop in his province" , "old bicycle" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
