As far as I'm aware the Furness region (including High Furness, rather than just Low Furness - the peninsula that we tend to think of) includes the whole Coniston and Windermere region. The Furness fells, for instance, are those around Coniston. As such, Low Ludderburn, the Heald, etc. are all in Furness. As such, the description seems reasonably sound (if a tad antiquated).
