Flag of County Durham
The Flag of County Durham is the flag of the historic county of Durham. It was registered with the Flag Institute as the flag of the county in 2013, after winning an online competition to decide a flag for the county.
== Armorial banner ==
County Durham has long used the flag of Durham County Council as an unofficial flag of the county. This flag was the banner of arms of the County Council, based on the arms of the See of Durham (''Azure a Cross Or between four Lions rampant Argent'').〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Durham, Bishopric of )〕 In 1961 the council adopted a coat of arms based on those of the See, with the lions holding swords and wearing crowns and the addition of five black lozenges to represent the county's coal mining industries. After the Local Government Act 1972 came into effect County Durham lost territory in the north to Tyne and Wear and in the south to Cleveland, whilst gaining the Startforth Rural District from the North Riding of Yorkshire. The arms of the County Council were altered to their present form by replacing the central lozenge with a White Rose of York.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Durham County Council (UA) )〕
