Redirected from Sir Henry Royce
He was born in Alwalton[?], near Peterborough, which was then in Huntingdonshire (or Northamptonshire or Rutland - sources differ), but is now part of Cambridgeshire.
On his death, as a sign of mourning, the company permanently changed the colour of the "RR" lettering on the Rolls-Royce badge from red to black.
