Another banner of the County arms this flag is quite striking in it's design.

The arms were granted on 25 January 1930. The supporters represent the two main industries of the County for many centuries, a bull for grazing and a ram for the wool production. The bull wears a Ducal Crown, as several Earls of Leicester were also Dukes of Lancaster. The fox represents the fox hunting which started in the area in 1690.
