The new flag of Cambridgeshire has been announced. More information at this link https://andystrangeway.wordpress.com/2015/02/01/brady-ells-wins-the-cambridgeshire-flag-competition/. The design by Brady Ells has three gold crowns to represent East Anglia, in which Cambridgeshire is located. They are placed against a blue field which is the same shade used on the East Anglia flag. The wavy lines represent the River Cam and are in the colours of Cambridge University.
