The Lancashire flag features a red rose on a gold field. The Red Rose of Lancaster is one of the most famous heraldic symbols in English history, representing the House of Lancaster in the Wars of the Roses against the White Rose of Yorkshire.

The rivalry between the Red Rose of Lancashire and the White Rose of Yorkshire continues today in the annual Roses cricket match between the two counties.
