St Machan
text:
Machan or Machanus was a twelfth-century Scottish saint. He was educated in Ireland and was ordained as a bishop in Rome. He is known for his missionary work around Clachan of Campsie, near Glasgow. Machan built a small chapel at the bottom of the glen. After his death, in 1175 a church was built over his grave. In 1859 there was a St. Machan's Well at Campsie, but no trace now remains. Most information about St Machan is lost. However, his name remains in the name of the village of Ecclesmachan
