🖤🔥Fly the Heart of the Industrial Midlands: Official Black Country Flag
Show your deep-rooted pride and celebrated industrial heritage with the authentic Black Country Flag! At Flagpole Express, we provide high-quality, durable flags that perfectly capture the unique spirit of the region, encompassing the historic towns of Dudley, Sandwell, Walsall, and Wolverhampton and beyond.
The Iconic Design: Black by Day, Red by Night
The Black Country flag, designed by a local schoolgirl and adopted in 2012, is a powerful visual tribute to the region's famous industrial past. It’s an ideal way to celebrate your local identity on Black Country Day (July 14th) or all year round.
- ⚫Black and 🔴Red: These dominant colours are inspired by American consul Elihu Burritt’s 1862 description of the region as "black by day and red by night," referencing the smoke and soot from the coal seams and the fiery glow of the iron furnaces and forges.
- ⬜White Glass Cone: The prominent upright white triangle symbolises the region’s internationally significant glass-making heritage, notably the iconic Red House Cone in Wordsley, Stourbridge.
- ⛓️Three Chain Links: These links represent the chain-making industry that was central to the area's economy, honouring the hard-working people who forged the chains and anchors for ships like the Titanic. They symbolise the strong unity of the Black Country's communities.
