Flag Of Devonright Devon has its own flag which has been dedicated to St Petroc, who is a local saint with numerous dedications throughout Devon and neighbouring counties. This flag was adopted in 2003 after a competition run by BBC Devon. The design has some similarities to the flag of neighbouring Cornwall, the standard of St Piran. http://www.bbc.co.uk/devon/community_life/features/devon_flag.shtml It won 49% of the votes cast. The flag is a visible symbol of a recent growth of interest in Devon's Celtic heritage, rooted in the ancient Dumnonii tribe. External Links
