Arilda of Oldbury

Arilda, or Arild, was a female saint from Oldbury-on-Severn in the English county of Gloucestershire.

Arilda was a virgin martyr who, according to John Leland, was slain by a youth named Municus when she refused to have sex with him.

Two churches in Gloucestershire are dedicated to Arilda, one at Oldbury-on-Severn near her traditional home, a second (St Arild's Church) at Oldbury-on-the-Hill.

Both places were called "Aldberie" at the time of the Domesday Book in 1086, suggesting that their names may be derived from the saint.

Leland claims that Arilda lived in Kington, a hamlet in the parish of Oldbury-on-Severn, where there is a holy well bearing Arilda's name.
