“Pigkeeper and poet”

What a lovely combination. The London Library has a small display of some of the life membership application forms that it has received over the years – there are all the usual ones you’d except, from Bernard Shaw to Virginia Woolf, but also featured is “Mrs Harley Moseley”, who joined in 1956 from St Mawes, Truro, Cornwall, listing her occupation as “pigkeeper and poet”.

Google has failed me on this one … can anyone supply any info?
