In this episode, Matthew Yeomans follows the old Monmouthshire canal route from Newport towards Rogerstone and explores the mythology surrounding the Celtic Saints who came to prominence in what is often called The Dark Ages. We meet Gwynllyw, the Welsh pirate saint, Melangell protector of animals, glorious Gwladys and very holy Cadoc. Could they have drawn inspiration from the ancient Druids?
