Notes: | The Monmouth Flag is a community flag proclaiming the unique identity of this Monmouthshire town. The golden bridge over blue represents the iconic crossing over the river Monnow. The green above is the same shade as the Welsh flag, representing Monmouth as a historically important crossing into Wales. Above the bridge is a simple depiction of Monmouth’s gatehouse, offset to the hoist for visibility. |
