'Robin Hood's Chair' is the name of a rock immediately NE of Angler's Crag on the south shore of Ennerdale Water. The earliest reference I have found so far is a 6" O.S. map published in 1867, based on surveying done in 1863 (see Maps section below).

Dobson, R. B., ed.; Taylor, J., ed. Rymes of Robyn Hood: an Introduction to the English Outlaw (London, 1976), p. 295, s.n. Robin Hood's Chair.
