More about this scene
The vast parish of Morwenstow's most famous Rector was Robert Stephen Hawker, incumbent from 1834-75. He was also a poet and songwriter and wrote 'The Song of the Western Men', Cornwall's national song. The Bush Inn, half a mile from the church, still stands, but now has a slate roof after the thatch was destroyed in a fire in 1968.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
I have many fond memories of The Bush Inn and the adjacent hall where we used to have dances and events in the 1950s. I returned to visit The Bush about 5 years ago and when I walked in (40 years on) the lady behind the bar recognised me and called me by my first name...amazing.
My mum was born up the road, part of the Rogers family, very nice Bush Inn.
