Life
Venerable Myrbad is one of the three saints who came from Ireland to Cornwall in England, by all appearances in the sixth century, together with Winnow and Mancus. Churches in Cornwall are dedicated to them. The sources found say no more about his life.
He is commemorated on 31 May (new style) in the Orthodox England calendar.
