Description

The flag of the Commonwealth Lighthouse Service was the Australian national flag with a lighthouse badge in the middle of the southern cross.

This flag was in existence since before World War II, but is no longer in use.

On the Lighthouses of Australia website there are photos of two historical ensigns of the Commonwealth Lighthouse Service (Australia). The images at the top of this page is made to match the photos. It is not clear which flag of the two was the older ensign, but both are apparently no longer used.
