The rose and the crown are two of the major symbols relating to loyalty to Queen (or King) and country. However, although the use of the two together is an obvious thing to do, is the rose that of Lancaster or York?
This one is the red rose of the House of Lancaster.
Two signs are on show here. One of them is the standard hanging fare, the other, not uncommon on purpose-built buildings around this age stands out in relief.
