A Vision of Britain through Time provides the following description of Low Angerton from John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales of 1870-72:
ANGERTON (High and Low), two townships in Hartburn parish, Northumberland; on the Wansbeck river and railway, with a [railway] station, 6½ miles W of Morpeth. Acres: 2,272. Population: 185. Houses: 28.
High Angerton was originally a township in the ancient parish of Hartburn, Northumberland. It became a separate civil parish in 1866, but in 1955 it was abolished and absorbed back into the neighbouring parish of Hartburn.
