Locals have reacted to a photo which appears to show six men in balaclavas posing by a recently hung Union Jack flag.
A photo of the flag, which is understood to have appeared in Norfolk Street, Wisbech, was posted on a local Facebook discussion group on Saturday (August 30).
It has since amassed hundreds of comments and been liked by more than 700 people.
The flag is understood to have been hung yesterday (August 29) and has been met with a largely positive reception.
It comes as Fenland District Council recently announced its support for the 'patriotic flying' of the St George's Cross and Union Jack.
One user said it "makes me smile" driving into Wisbech and seeing "all the flags near the roundabout".
However, some locals questioned why the individuals pictured were wearing balaclavas, with user adding: "If they're proud of what they've done they should go maskless."
Just last week, Cambridgeshire County Council confirmed it would be removing St George's Crosses dubbed "graffiti" daubed on two roundabouts in March.
A spokesperson said its highways team follow a "standard process when things are placed on our highways.".
They added: "This is considered as graffiti, and damage so will be removed. We’ll continue to monitor the situation along with our partners."
