39 Yorkshire
19 Lanky shire
30 Walesshire
And I suspect 4 to be Durhamshire (Land of the Prince Bishops).

Is 26 Nottinghamshire? The archer suggests Robin Hood to me.

Re: County Gallery (Originals Only)
Yes, and the Warwickshire was right too. For each flag there is some tremendous detail. The Cheshire link I posted up in particular has loads!

Dragonses are Welsh, so it's Wales or Westeros.

Number 34 contains Martlets - or the drunken birds of Sussex, as they're legless (so can't land).
And 6 must be Kernow - down at the bottom left of the country.

Re: County Gallery (Originals Only)
Number 1 on the chart......Bedfordshire Best, so what has Bedfordshire to do with shells? Explained here
https://britishcountyflags.com/2014/09/ ... hire-flag/
Bucks Star....so what has Buckinghamshire got to do with A Swan....https://britishcountyflags.com/2013/04/ ... hire-flag/
And the Greene King Beer mat should lead you to a particular county flag

Re: County Gallery (Originals Only)
I had a very entertaining trip to meet a friend. Due to the fact that Leicestershire will be tier 3 next week we decided to meet at the county border and conduct our business but it didn't stop me getting a picture of the A6 as it enters Leicestershire from which I claim the final England county. As you can see from the second picture it was an "only just" picture :
