HAMPSTEAD
Incorporated into : 1965 Camden
Official blazon
Arms: Azure a Cross Argent charged with a Mitre between four Fleurs-de-Lys Gules a Chief indented Or fretty Gules.
Crest: On a Wreath of the Colours a Stag's Head Argent attired Or gorged with a Wreath of Holly proper pendent therefrom an Escutcheon Gules charged with a Fleur-de-Lys Argent.

Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 1931.
The mitre stands for the Abbey of Westminster, to which the Manor of Hampstead belonged from the end of the 10th century until 1539. The other emblems stand for later holders of the Manor: the fleur-de-lis and stag's head for Hickes, the fretty chief for Noel and the cross for Langhorne. The holly is from the seal of the old Hampstead Vestry.
