Saint Gwrthwl is a Pre-Congregational Saint of Powys in Wales.

He was said to have been a hermit and to have founded a church in the village of Llanwrthwl.[1] The site of his church yielded artefacts form the Bronze Age[2] and Roman Empire.[3] The saint appears to have converted a pagan place of worship as there is indications of the site being used for religious purposes from about 2000 B.C.Шаблон:Cn

He is remembered as 'The Confessor', and his Feast Day is commemorated on 2 March.[4] [5]
