No flag

Kent does not have a town flag but if it did this (see below) is what would be on it.

Hypothetical Flag

image by Peter Orenski, 18 December 1998

If we had a flag I assume this would be it. The Town of Kent seal is crest shaped. At the top, boldly enclosed in a banner is the "KENT", below it in much smaller letters is "CONNECTICUT". The body of the crest is divided into five sections, each containing a symbol of the development of the town. Across the entire midsection is an open book with the words "Settled 1720" and "Incorp.1739". To the left of the book is a church, to the right a school. The upper third of the crest is divided into two sections by a large diamond shaped arrowhead. The left corner contains a crown, a reminder of early sovereign rule. The upper right contains a cow and stone iron furnace, both early and important industries. Finally the bottom third of the crest contains a large gear, symbol of local industry.
