Peter Pan claim

[edit]

The first paragraph claims the house and gardens were Barrie's inspiration for Peter Pan and Neverland but gives no source for this claim. Considering that many other locations (from Kirriemuir to Kensington Gardens) make a similar claim, the statement here should be either removed, amended or provided with a proper citation.--ErikaJJ (talk) 15:29, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not aware of any other location making a claim to the inspiration for the character and Neverland. The article on Barrie himself gives a citation to a speech Barrie gave on Moat Brae; sadly the contents are in print only. Kirriemuir was the bithplace of Barrie. Kensington Gadens was used as a location for the story itself. jusDAJ (talk) 12:25, 16 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
