Life
Socrates and Stephen of Britain were martyrs of Britain, remembered together on 25 September.
The Roman Martyrology says only that in England there were the holy martyrs Socrates and Stephen. We have no data on the time or circumstances of their martyrdom.
They are saints of the undivided Church, named in the Roman Martyrology; no Orthodox synodal canonization is known. The information is very scant.
