Saint Modan

He became a monk and built a chapel at Dryburgh, Scotland, in 522 which he used as a base for several years.

He actively proselytised on behalf of the Celtic church in the Falkirk and Stirling areas, and along the Forth, continuing until he was elected abbot, a post which he accepted reluctantly.

After a number of years he resigned and became a hermit, settling in the Dumbarton area, where he would die.

His relics were enshrined at Saint Modan's church, Rosneath.
