Robin Hood's Chair.
By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-05-10. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-07-12.
'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).
