I think the flag in Accrington is only flown at half mast when a former Mayor has died. It's also flown at half mast as well when Royalty die. There's probably one or two other occasions as well.

The one up Ossy may well have been flown at half mast because of the death of George Griffiths. Was George a former Chairman of Ossy District Council,in the old urban district days.
