Flag of Worcestershire : ウィキペディア英語版 | Flag of Worcestershire
The Worcestershire flag is the flag of the county of Worcestershire. It was registered with the Flag Institute on 8 April 2013 as the winning entry of a BBC Hereford & Worcester competition.〔(【引用サイトリンク】author=Worcester News )〕 It was first flown in a ceremony at Worcester Cathedral on the same day. ==Design== Designed by Elaine Truby, the flag features the county's famed black pear – a symbol reported to have been used by Worcestershire units at the Battle of Agincourt. Additionally a pear tree is seen on the local council's arms. Three of these pears are seen on a shield charged against a wavy green and blue background. These latter colours symbolise the verdant flood plain of the River Severn as it runs through the county. The dark green hue is that worn by the county's cricket team. The flag was created after a competition was launched in 2013 by radio station BBC Hereford & Worcester, to create an official flag for the county after it was discovered Worcestershire didn’t have one.
