While all three colours pay a nod to the original Dorset coat of arms. The red and white colours also make reference to the English flag itself, and the yellow/gold colouring symbolises Dorset’s agricultural heritage and golden sandy beaches.
History of the Flag of Dorset
This flag began its existence in September 2008 following a public vote organised by the Dorset County Council. Following a decision to step away from the Dorset coat of arms, which holds it’s own purpose in the council. The competition was opened and a variety of entries were considered. Finally, Jason Saber, a member of the Flag Institute, opted for the winning white cross design, we see today. Which is now locally and commonly known as the Dorset Cross.
