Summary

Description
English: The portcullis design is recorded as the work of Charles Barry in 1834 and is used on many Royal commissions such as on the Great Bell ("Big Ben"). “Regular size” redesign from 2018.

“It is a royal badge and its use by the House has been formally authorised by licence granted by Her Majesty the Queen. The designs and symbols of the House should not be used for purposes to which such authentication is inappropriate, or where there is a risk that their use might wrongly be regarded, or represented, as having the authority of the House.

The House symbol is primarily used to authenticate communications from Members.”

A grant for official use is not a claim of copyright. It is not possible to retrospectively claim copyright of an emblem or logo where publication and usage dates back more than two centuries.

This information is based on House of Commons Information Office paper "The Portcullis", published in 2010, and a copyright statement from Parliament website.

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.
