Saint Barrog of Wales (Barrwg, Barnoch, Barry) was, in the seventh century, a disciple of Saint Cadoc of Wales and a hermit. His name remained with Barry Island off the coast of Glamorgan, where he lived. He is commemorated on 27 September, as a saint of the undivided Church, by the New Calendar. Our sources preserve no further details of his life.
