    Looks good to me and should pre-date 1953, as it has the King's crown.

      It would probably be flown in front of the office block of a unit headquarters.

        And IMO likely post WW2 as material is without rows.
        OFW
        (below) UK Ensign with WW2 rows,
        and flag in question without rows.

            OFW, I see the rows in the picture, but what would they indicate? Is it some sort of construction that was only used untill 1945? Seems unlogic? Why would a flag producing process chance?

              Hello Dmv:
              Good question. The woven material rows are
              something I've uniquely observed on WW2 UK era
              made flags. After WW2 I believe the use of cheaper
              and in many cases stronger nyla-wool bunting came
              into use, replacing reinforcement woven row material.

              OFW
              (below-on right) super rare WW2 UK made RKF with row material.

                  Hello RMR:
                  Post #7 WW2 UK RKF, with red material
                  rows, was made of wool bunting. And IMO
                  same goes for post #1/4b flag without rows.
