1. and 2. _ I will e-mail you with some further thoughts, but this looks like it could get way off-topic and I don't want to be the subject of Tarboard flaming...
3. My understanding is that WCI (or rather Peel Island) is National Trust land and that the Trust has prohibited camping on it without permission from it. I don't know about Swallowdale (and of course there are several candidates for that) - it may differ depennding on which Swallowdale we are talking about.
On the subject of "where are the places", ISTR that AR took Cliford Webb on a guided tour of the area when CW was engaged to illustrate SA and SD. I wonder whether CW kept a diary or otherwise recorded where AR took him (or indeed any of his thoughts concerning his time with AR) - we have some of AR's letters which convey his own, unflattering assessment of CW (imagine - making a hash of getinng into and out of a small boat, even with a gamey leg).
