Birinus

Mt. Birinus katika dirisha la kioo cha rangi huko Dorchester Abbey.

Birinus (600 hivi – 649) alikuwa mmonaki wa Kikolumbani aliyefanywa askofu wa kwanza wa Dorchester.

Tangu kale anaheshimiwa kama mtakatifu na kuitwa "mtume wa Wasaksoni wa Magharibi" kutokana na kuingiza ufalme wa Wessex katika Ukristo.

Sikukuu yake huadhimishwa tarehe 3 Desemba au 4 Septemba.
