Description: The pine, the pub sign and the church - Zennor, near to Zennor, Cornwall, Great Britain. Zennor was once a centre for fishing, quarrying, farming and tin mining but now only agriculture has survived. The pub is noted for its past famous resident, the novelist D H Lawrence and his German wife Frieda who lodged there in 1916 before renting a cottage nearby. Lawrence wrote "Women in Love" during the eighteen months of their stay before being ousted for their bohemian lifestyle and there was some thought in the community that they were spies. The carving of the Mermaid of Zennor and the memorial stone of John Davey, the last traditional speaker of the Cornish language, are at the Church of St Senara.
