Life

Venerable Medran was, in the sixth century, a disciple of Saint Kieran of Saighir in Ireland. The calendar speaks of two brothers, Medran and Odran, one of whom stayed with Saint Kieran while the other founded a monastery in the region of Muskerry; Medran is honoured at Muskerry. The sources found say no more.

He is commemorated on 7 July (new style) in the Orthodox England calendar.
