In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Eamont Bridge like this:
EAMONT-BRIDGE, a township in Barton parish, Westmoreland; on the river Eamont, about 1 mile SSE of Penrith. It is joined to Yanwath, which see. The bridge which gives it name is a picturesque structure; and the curious antiquities, called Arthur's Round Table and Mayborough, are in the neighbourhood.
