Elterwater is a village in the English Lake District and the county of Cumbria. The village lies half a mile (800 m) north-west of the lake of Elter Water, from which it derives its name. Both are situated in the valley of Great Langdale.[1]
Elterwater Bridge is a Grade II listed structure dating to at least the 18th century.[2]
