That light is the PATS light (passive anti theft) The light flashes like most cars to tell you the system is active. As in you cars security system. That light tells you what the system is doing and flashes a certain number of times to tell you that there is a fault with the system. If the system is functioning normally the light will flash every 2 seconds when the ignition is switched off.
Many thanks for such a lovely reply. It has no pattern to the flashing, sometimes stops and starts again, continuous ... it seems unpredictable.Download the manual from here : http://www.focusplanet.com/#Focus Owners Manual
See if you can find it in there, pics of dashboard and warning lights are at the very start...
All I can see between the indicator lights is the speedo!!!

Why does the fuel cap being on the right mean it is a US car???Perhaps you need a warning light to check your cap after filling up with petrol?

Does the same light also come on yellow?
Fords have lights that are yellow when slightly cold outside as a warning and then red when it is very cold. It the light shaped like a snowflake?
That'll be my only suggestion. If it is anything else I am afraid I am of no help at all!
