Collen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Saint Collen was a 7th-century monk who gave his name to Llangollen (from the Welsh llan meaning 'enclosure' and 'gollen' meaning 'Collen'). St Collen is said to have arrived in Llangollen by coracle and founded a church beside the river there. As there are no other churches in Wales dedicated to St. Collen, it is possible that this St. Collen may also have connections in both Colan, Cornwall and Langolen, Brittany.
