Berthun of Beverley

Saint Berthun of Beverley (Bercthun, Bertin, Britwin) was a Benedictine monk of Beverley, a disciple of Saint John of Beverley and the first abbot of the monastery there. He reposed on 15 May 733, the day on which he was locally honoured.

He was also Bede's informant for much of what Bede wrote about Beverley. Later in life he became abbot. He was succeeded by Saint Winewald. He is also known from the Secgan hagiographies, and a bust of him is thought to be kept in the British Library.
