[9] This means that the two paired doors of numbers 16 and 17, which stand beneath a pediment supported by five Corinthian columns at what would have been the centre of the crescent,[8] no longer form its middle.

[10] The arms of Charles Pratt, 1st Earl Camden, after whom the crescent was named, are on the doorway keystones along with an elephant's head which was his symbol.

[1][11] In July 1951 Number 1 Camden Crescent was the scene of an abduction when John Straffen took five-year-old Brenda Goddard and later killed her.

[12] In Jane Austen's Persuasion (1818), the Elliot family rent lodgings on Camden Place, as the Crescent was then known.

In Georgette Heyer's Lady of Quality (1972), which is set in Regency era Bath, her heroine Annis Wychwood owns one of the houses there.
