Historic flag unable to fly for Johnstone

Renfrewshire Council won't be able to fly the old burgh coat of arms for Johnstone as planned - despite a recent decision from elected members to do so.
Provost Lorraine Cameron has confirmed the local authority encountered a “problem” that effectively means it does not have the power to display that particular emblem at this time.
The council had intended to fly the burgh flag in the town’s Houstoun Square but could now fly the flag of Johnstone Burgh Football Club instead following their Scottish Junior Cup win in June.

In an update to councillors, Provost Cameron explained: “Unfortunately, we have uncovered a problem in respect of Johnstone.
