| Summary: | Saint Aidan of Ferns is written by Christopher Power, a historian and librarian living in Ferns. He has tracked the story of St Aidan, the founder and first bishop of the diocese of Ferns, through the places named after him, the archaeological remains and the literature that recounts his miraculous works, based on the hagiographies of the early Saints. There are two holy wells dedicated to St Aidan: St Mogue's Well in Ferns, Co. Wexford and St Maedhog's well at Whitesands, Pembrokeshire. Additionally, there are a number of churches and cathedrals including St Edan's Cathedral in Ferns, St Aidan's Cathedral, Enniscorthy, St Mogue's at Haroldston West, Pembrokeshire and St Aidan's Church at Llawhaden, Pembrokeshire. The locations of these sites correspond to Aidan's life's journey, in particular the two regions where his impact was most keenly felt: Wexford and Pembrokeshire.--Provided by publisher. |
