The original codex contained lessons from the Gospel of Matthew (Evangelistarium), with lacunae[2] on 65 parchment leaves. The leaves are measured (32.8 cm by 25.8 cm).[3][4]
The text is written in Greek minuscule letters, in two columns per page, 22 lines per page.[3][4]
Scrivener dated the manuscript to the 8th-century, Gregory dated it to the 11th-century.[5][2] It is presently assigned by the INTF to the 11th-century.[3][4]
The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener (282e)[5] and Gregory (number 334e).[2] It was examined by T. K. Abbott and Mahaffy. Gregory saw it in 1883.[2]
Formerly it was held in Blenheim (3. D. 13).[5] Currently the codex is housed at the British Library (Add MS 31919) in London.[3][4]
