About the flag

The Hertfordshire Flag is a community flag proclaiming the unique identity of this historic English county.

The flag consists of a field of eight alternate wavy lines in blue and white.

Upon this field is also a brown stag (hart) on a gold shield.

This design is the banner of arms of Hertfordshire County Council.

On 19 November 2008 the council resolved to permit its use as the county flag.

Hertfordshire County Council retains the sole right to employ, and authorise use of, the full achievement of arms with supporters and crest.
