Patron saint of healers, poets, blacksmiths and dairy maids, Saint Brigid of Kildare also known as Saint Bridget or Saint Bride is one of Ireland's best known saints.

She is said to have been very beautiful with a compassionate character. Many of the tales of her life are about her meeting the spiritual and physical needs of her neighbours. She turning her bath water into beer to quench the thirst of some visiting clerics, my personal favourite, and her cows were said to give milk three times a day.

She died and was buried in Kildare , but during the Danish invasions her remains were removed to Downpatrick, just a few miles from where I live, and here she was reburied with the remains of Saint Patrick and Saint Columba.

She is the patron saint of healers, poets, blacksmiths and dairy maids.

In this image she is pictured against a background of St Brigid's crosses which are traditionally woven from rushes on February 1st (St Brigid's feast day) and set over doorways or windows to protect the home from any kind of harm.
