Other flags
 In
general it is not appropriate for churches to fly flags other than
the Royal Standard, Bishop’s Standard, Diocesan flag or the Union
Flag.
There may be exceptions when a church has two flagpoles in this case
it would be possible to fly a Naval Ensign for a Naval service, for
example, together with a Church flag.
Occasionally the flags of other nations might be flown as a courtesy
to foreign visitors.
All heraldic flags In Scotland come under the legal jurisdiction of
the Lord Lyon King of Arms, in terms of the Act of Parliament 1672
cap. 47 and under 30 & 31 Vict. cap. 17. The Lord Lyon’s regulations
governing the display of heraldic flags in Scotland are broadly as
follows. Doubts and questions of exact detail should be referred to
the Court of the Lord Lyon.
