Life
Venerable Gwrddelw (Gwrthili, Gwrddyly) is named in the Welsh lists among the children of Caw, king of Strathclyde, and is regarded as a Welsh saint of the fifth century. Baring-Gould shows that the forms of the name in the lists are without doubt one and the same name. He is honoured at Caerleon, and tradition places his commemoration on 7 January.
