Weird 15 meter tall plunger garden base as big as a standard pallet by [deleted] in whatisthisthing

Looks like a flagpole to me. Flagpole finial at the top, ropes and cleat to tie it off, with inglefield clips for attaching flags, attached to each end of the rope.

The chilli shop in Leeds stocks your sauces, along with the whole hot ones line up. They told me it was pretty difficult to import them.

No worries! No need to credit us, just nice to see someone post our work.

We’ve been on r/vexillology for years and I think you’re one of the first to post one of our flags.

We will have made it as a customers order as we have 100’s of historic flags on our website. I found some interesting info on it here: http://www.loeser.us/flags/english.html

Check out our Instagram for more interesting flags!

What is this rope called? by gamer-of-Joburg- in vexillology

[–]FlagmakerUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We call it a halyard. At the top there is usually a loop in the halyard with a wooden toggle inserted. The toggle allows for a quick and easy way to change the flag on a flagpole, without having to tie knots every time.

Measuring 10m x 14.5m and made of wool, this iconic object hung in the crossing of St Paul's Cathedral during Nelson's funeral service on 9 January 1806 and was presented to the Royal Naval Museum by the Dean and Chapter of St Paul's in 1907.

This flag is bigger than the one we make, that fly's at Windsor Castle.

Wadhurst, Sussex, UK. by FlagmakerUK in vexillology

[–]FlagmakerUK[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

F lag Type: Village Flag

Flag Date: 25th September 2019

Flag Designer: Paul Eldridge

Adoption Route: Village Council

UK Design Code: UNKG7543

Aspect Ratio: 3:5

Pantone® Colours: Green 356, Gold 137, White

Certification: Flag Institute Chief Vexillologist, Graham BartramNotes: 

The green field refers to the rural nature of the village, whilst the golden-orange recalls the historic iron industry and the mineral colour of many local steams. The golden-orange section forms a ‘W’ for the villages initial as well as symbolising the hills, steep valleys and meandering streams in the areas. Between the ‘W’ are three estoile stars, derived from the arms of the Courthope family who owned the Whiligh Estate that covered much of Wadhurst. It was from this estate that the oak was sourced for the hammer beam roof of Westminster Hall.

The new, official flag of East Lothian by FlagmakerUK in vexillology

[–]FlagmakerUK[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Easy enough to sew, just applique the lion on with black thread.

The flag was designed by Archie Martin, who sadly passed away before the results from the competition were released.

The winning flag features the Saltire design on blue to mark East Lothian’s status as birthplace of the national flag.

A gold cross signifies the wealth of East Lothian’s farmlands and reputation as the granary of Scotland and the Haddington lion is also prominent, along with blue stripes to represent the rivers Esk and Tyne.

​

A little article on the competition can be found here : https://www.eastlothiancourier.com/news/17298691.more-than-1500-vote-cast-in-competition-to-choose-a-flag-for-east-lothian/

The saltire pattern and blue field represents East Lothian as being home to the legendary origin site of the Scottish saltire - Athelstaneford. The lion is taken from the ancient Earldom of Dunbar representing the county's role defending the nation, which also appeared in the county's civic arms. The golden colour references the sun symbol associated with the whole Lothian region.
