Oud-Alblas former municipality

Oud-Alblas is a former municipality in Zuid-Holland province, since 1986 part of Graafstroom municipality, a few km north of Papendrecht.
Flag: green with a yellow hoist-triangle, reaching 2/3 flaglength; the triangle charged with five black lozenges placed into the direction of flaglength; 3 lozenges in a vertical row at 1/6 flaglength, and 2 in a vertical row at 11/30 flaglength.
adopted 18 Apr 1977; design: the municipality itself.

Green is for "water", and thus symbolizes the small Alblas-river. The triangle and lozenges represent the municipal arms.
