Flag of Middlesex

The flag of Middlesex is the flag of the English county of Middlesex, an historic division of the country, much of whose territory now forms large parts of north and west London. The flag is a banner of the arms of the now defunct Middlesex County Council. Whilst such banners of county arms are legally not generally available for public use, this design had been used traditionally in Middlesex and neighbouring Essex for centuries. For a full description and background of the arms from which this banner derives, see the section titled Arms of "Middlesex County Council" at Middlesex. This traditional design is included in the Flag Institute's registry of local flags as the Middlesex Flag [ [http://www.flaginstitute.org/index.php?location=10&flagtype=county&flagid=111] ] .
