In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Eachwick like this:
EACHWICK, a township in Heddon-on-the-Wall parish, Northumberland; on the river Pont, 9½ miles WNW of Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Acres, 985. Pop., 87. Houses, 19. It anciently bore the name of Achewic; was given, in 1140, by Robert Delavel, to Hexham abbey; and passed, through the Fenwicks and others, to the Spearmans.
