Brenda Wootton was a good singer, but she was also a professional Cornish type I remember going and playing Bodmin folk club and then Scilly isles club several times and then hearing a recording of her singing it on the ferry It has a lovely tune and good words but in my opinion its a bit of Cornish Whackery., all part of promoting Cornish tourisMm Stage Cornwall. but each to their own Dave the Gnome said I have to point out that it is patently Mancunian. Pamona Gardens were an easy walk and easier ride from Albert Square in Manchester. There is no such link with Lamorna. It's like Dirty Old Town being about Dublin!
