About the flag
The Bothwell Flag is a community flag proclaiming the unique identity of this Lanarkshire town.
Ava McBain – a Year 7 pupil at Muiredge Primary School, Uddingston – was the winner of its recent flag competition, gaining 53% of the public vote.
Her design represents a stylised map of the town, using the colours of the town's primary schools.
Vertical wavy bands of white and blue evoke the river Clyde flowing to the west.
The gold field is completed with a red standstone castle.
The unveiling ceremony took place at Bothwell Parish Church on Saturday 11 January 2025.
