Note that the coat of arms depicted here represents the Late Mediaeval fabulous one of King Arthur, almost similar to famous Swedish Tre kronor. In fact, there were no arms in that period, as heraldry appeared in 12th century only. So it would be reasonable to mention this circumstance in notabene within the article or just near the image.
It seems that the former country template and WPFC template encourage the use of such anachronistic inventions of bookish or sometimes pure fantastic origin (see Flag of East Anglia). This strange practice misleads people and has a pernicious effect on language of science, reflecting its Europocentric character. Apparently, many cultures and epochs knew not what was coat of arms or even flag. Now, do Abbasid caliphs appeal to us for a crest? 94.230.167.249 (talk) 15:01, 28 April 2010 (UTC) Andrei PilipenkoReply

There are a lot articles about pre-Norman england which have been written with very little citations and this is another one. An article of this size should have more than one citation. Maybe it is original research, which is inappropriate for an encyclopedia. Or is it a reworking of a single source? Also, not appropriate.
