Yesterday, I commented that it was Saint David’s Day and that Saint David is the Patron Saint of Wales. Today is Saint Chad’s Day. Saint Chad is a lesser known local saint. He is celebrated throughout northwest England. There is a Cathedral dedicated to him in Stafford and several churches dedicated to him. In the town of Shrewsbury, there is an abandoned Church called Old Saint Chad’s and a church called Saint Chad’s.
