Flag of Lancashire
The Lancashire flag is the flag of the Lancashire County Palatine, that is the historic county boundaries of Lancashire, not the current ceremonial county of Lancashire. The Red Rose of Lancaster is a symbol for the House of Lancaster, immortalised in the verse "In the battle for England's head/York was white, Lancaster red" (referring to the 15th century War of the Roses). The traditional Lancashire flag, a red rose on a white field, was never registered. When an attempt was made to register it with the Flag Institute, it was found that this flag had already been registered by the town of Montrose, Angus, several hundred years earlier with the Lyon Office. As the Flag Institute will not register two flags of the same design within the UK, Lancashire's official flag was registered — in 200
