Patrick was part of Palladiusâ entourage. Palladius didnât last to long and Patrick took over. A very good âshort history ofâ episode on him last week. He definitely existed.

Wicklow is named after one of his disciples. Cill Mhantain. Mhantain means toothless. He got his teeth knocked out when he first landed. Must have tried reffing a football match
As an add on to this. Cill Mhantain is not a translation of Wicklow. Its a completely different name in Irish. I canât think of any other county where this is the case off the top of my head.
