Whats happened?? why does the text Start half way down the page? Talskiddy 16:53, 20 October 2006 (UTC) reply

reading about a bit it seems likley that the song was originally about Pomona dock, but I'd still say that the song now has much stronger associations with Cornwall than it ever did with Manchester, having being successfully been pirated and adopted long ago. How often do you hear people singing the Manchester words? I think Brenda Wootton claimed this one! Mammal4 14:46, 20 October 2006 (UTC) reply

Fishing Village?

Was Lamorna ever a fishing village? As far as I know the short quay was built for the transport of granite. I don't recall ever seeing any boats in the harbour and can't recall any reports of seine netting or pilchards being landed here. Jowaninpensans ( talk) 14:46, 1 August 2011 (UTC) reply
