Life
Saint Dingad of Llandingat was a Welsh saint of the late 5th century, a church founder and a hermit at Llandingat (today Llandovery) in Dyfed. All the early documents on the family of King Brychan of Brycheiniog count him among Brychan's sons. He is the patron of Llandingat Church in Carmarthenshire and of Dingestow in Monmouthshire; of the latter it is sometimes said that it bears the name of another Dingad, son of Nudd Hael. He is a saint of the undivided Church.
He is commemorated on 1 November, the liturgical date in the Orthodox calendar (the same day number on the old and new calendars).
