Pandaemonium tells the story of Samuel Coleridge life with William Wordsworth's influence.
The previous scene is William and Dorothy Wordsworth (brother and sister) arriving by horse drawn carriage on shores of Buttermere. See nearby waymarks. Their journey continues to the farm house which William has rented. In the movie, Dorothy (sister) meets Mary (future wife) for the first time.
In real life, Mary and Dorothy went to school together in Penrith, aged 12. It was whilst walking on the Beacon Pike, Penrith (geocache) with the girls, that William met and got to know Mary.
Bowderbeck is a holiday cottage, and needed little changing for the film. Drive south out of Buttermere signed Honister Pass. After the Youth Hostel, Bowderbeck appears on downhill side of the road. Name on wooden gate.
