Life

Venerable Tudglid is held to have been one of the daughters of King Brychan of Brycheiniog in Wales. According to the old genealogies she was the wife of Cyngen, prince of Powys, and the mother of Cadell, Brochwel Ysgythrog and Mawn. She is thought to have been the original patron of the church at Llanwrtyd, in Brychan's land, where the parish feast was kept on 9 May, according to a note of 1699. Other lists give the year 532 for her repose.

She is honoured as a saint in the Orthodox England calendar.
