CELEBRATE BEDFORDSHIRE COUNTY DAY - 28TH NOVEMBER 2015.
The Flag of Bedfordshire was registered on September 25th, 2014 following a campaign led by Bedfordshire native Luke Blackstaffe of the Friends Of Bedfordshire Society.
The Bedfordshire county flag consists of red and yellow quadrants derived from the coat of arms of the Beauchamp family, a prominent family in Bedfordshire after the Norman conquest. A black panel running vertically down the centre of the Bedfordshire flag containing three escallops, this comes from the coat of arms of the Duke of Bedford. The blue and white wavy lines running horizontally represent the River Great Ouse, a dominant geographic feature of Bedfordshire county.
