Saint Ina

Not to be confused with Ine of Wessex.

Saint Ina is thought to be a fifth century Welsh saint and a member of the royal house of Gwynedd.

Ina was the daughter of Ceredig ab Cunedda Wledig (c. 420–453),[1] and a granddaughter of Cunedda Wledig, the progenitor of the royal dynasty of Gwynedd. The church of St Ina in Llanina in Ceredigion is dedicated to her. There is a tradition that the dedicatee is the Anglo-Saxon King Ine (or Ina) of Wessex (died 727), but this is not true.[2][3]

St Ina Road in Heath, Cardiff is presumably named after this Saint Ina, as it is among a group of roads named after Celtic saints.
