Remaines concerning Britain is a 1674 London miscellany of British antiquities, compiled by William Camden with editing by John Philipot and W. D., Gent, and printed for Charles Harper for antiquarian readers. Its pictures are small woodcut shields of arms, drawn in plain black outline with diagonal hatching, showing heraldic charges such as lozenges, wavy bendlets, chevrons and a star, which a designer could use as simple geometric heraldic motifs.
