Richard de Camville (died 1191) was an English crusader knight, and one of Richard the Lionheart's senior commanders during the Third Crusade. In June 1190, at Chinon, he was, with three others, put in charge of King Richard's fleet sailing for the Holy Land. In 1191, he was appointed governor of Cyprus, jointly with Robert of Thornham. He died later in the same year at the Siege of Acre.
He was the son of Richard de Camville (died 1176), an Anglo-Norman landowner, and Millicent de Rethel (daughter of Gervais, Count of Rethel, and kinswoman (second cousin) of Adeliza of Louvain, the second wife of King Henry I).
The family probably originated from Canville-les-Deux-Églises (Canvilla 1149, Camvilla 1153) in Normandy. He had at least one daughter, Isabel, wife of Robert de Harcourt.
In England, his holdings included land at Stanton Harcourt, in Oxfordshire, Blackland, in Wiltshire, and Speen (possibly posthumously) and Avington, both in Berkshire.
