married in Rome in 1931. They lived in Churriana, a village near Málaga, during the early part of the Spanish Civil War, befriending the 72-year-old zoologist, Sir Peter Chalmers Mitchell. Like Sir Peter, they provided safe haven to a right-wing sympathiser, despite objecting to his political views, staying on in Spain until the city was occupied by Italian forces sent by Mussolini to support the fascist rebels. This interlude is documented in Sir Peter's memoir, My House in Málaga, and also in Woolsey's memoir, Death's Other Kingdom. The couple then returned to England and for many years afterwards they lived in Aldbourne in Wiltshire. Brenan was permitted to return to Spain in 1953 despite holding views which were critical of Franco's regime. Gamel Woolsey died in Spain in 1968 of cancer, and is buried at the English Cemetery, Málaga. Brenan spent most of the remainder of his life in Churriana near Malaga and after Woolsey's death, in Alhaurín el Grande, Málaga. In 1984 Brenan was moved in controversial circumstances to a nursing home in Pinner, Middlesex, but he returned to Spain after the authorities there made special arrangements to provide him with the nursing care on which he depended. At the time of his death, his body was donated to the Medicine Faculty of Málaga for medical research and later cremated; his ashes are buried in the English Cemetery, Malaga.
