Description of the flag

Jesus College of Cambridge University uses a banner of arms, as described at the college website.

Blazon (my attempt at modernizing the original one, at the college website):
“Silver a fess between three cock’s heads razed sable combed and wattled a border gules semy of crowns or.”
In the current version, eight crowns are shown.

College Clubs flag

Jesus College traditionally flies their red and black clubs flag from their boat house on race days, and the 'Blues' clubs flag (plain Cambridge Blue) is carried at the Boat Race in London.
