Life

Holy Hierarch Cadgyfarch was a son of Saint Cadfrawd and a brother of Saint Gwrmael. He is said to have been a bishop, though we are not told of what see, and to be the patron of the church of Bryn Buga, the old name of Usk in Monmouthshire. The church of Usk is now dedicated to Saint Mary Magdalene. Nothing else is recorded. He is venerated in the undivided Church.
