Palatinate or 'palatinate purple' is a purple colour associated with Durham University and the City of Durham. It is used in the academic dress of Durham University and in the faculties of medicine and law at Newcastle University (being a former college of Durham University). It was also formerly used (from 1894) in the BA and MA hoods of Trinity College (Connecticut). A separate colour, 'palatinate blue', is derived from the Coat of Arms of County Durham. The name 'Palatinate' in both instances alludes to the historic status of Durham as a County Palatine.

  • Palatinate or 'palatinate purple' is a purple colour associated with Durham University and the City of Durham. It is used in the academic dress of Durham University and in the faculties of medicine and law at Newcastle University (being a former college of Durham University). It was also formerly used (from 1894) in the BA and MA hoods of Trinity College (Connecticut). The term has been used to refer to a number of different shades of purple. The Oxford English Dictionary defines it as a "light purple or lavender colour", which is used for Durham (and Newcastle) academic hoods. For corporate purposes Durham University uses a darker shade. A separate colour, 'palatinate blue', is derived from the Coat of Arms of County Durham. The name 'Palatinate' in both instances alludes to the historic status of Durham as a County Palatine. (en)
