Saint Lawrence (French language: Saint-Laurent, Jèrriais: St Louothains) is one of the twelve parishes of Jersey in the Channel Islands.
St Lawrence,
Bishop of Rome, was martyred along with six deacons and Pope Sixtus II by
being roasted alive on a gridiron. The saint is always depicted by being
tied to or holding a gridiron.
The parish flag shows a black gridiron on a white background.
