It is a Blue Ensign with the Union Flag in the canton and the Coat of arms of Montserrat in the fly.

[edit] Symbolism of arms

The arms feature Erin, the female personification of Ireland, and the golden harp, another symbol of Ireland. This reflects the colony's Irish ancestry.

[edit] Flag of the Governor

The Governor of Montserrat maintains a separate flag. The Governor's flag consists of a Union Flag defaced with the coat of arms.
