The Camden Roll is a 13th-century English roll of arms believed to have been created c. 1280, containing 270 painted coats of arms with 185 French blazons for various English and European monarchs, lords and knights.
The original roll is now held at the British Library as Cotton Roll XV. It consists of three vellum membranes in total measuring 6.25" by 63".
The face of the roll consists of 270 painted shields arranged in 45 rows of six shields, each with associated names and/or titles listed above each shield.
The dorse includes French blazons for 185 of the shields on the face.
