"St Alban was the 1st British martyr. Nearly nothing at all about him is acknowledged for particular – even the date of his martyrdom is unknown, and historians’ estimates fluctuate between 209 and 314 A.D. (more recent historical research suggests the mid-3rd century).
Alban was a Roman who lived in Verulamium and sheltered a fleeing Christian during a persecution. He was converted, and was executed. Whether the persecution was that of the emperor Diocletian or the emperor Decius – regardless of whether Alban pretended to be the fleeing Christian, and so died – whether any of the miraculous circumstances of his martyrdom actually transpired – all this is, by now, recognized only to God.
This does not suggest that St Alban did not exist. His cult was by now well established by the 12 months 429, and on the hill in which custom explained he was martyred, a excellent abbey grew up which at some point gave its name to the town. This sort of cults do not appear from nowhere and the neighborhood folks conserved in their tradition only what they essential to know – that there had been a martyr there. The fact that legends grew up all around him is absolutely nothing uncommon for the time, and does not cast any doubt on his existence, any a lot more than the legends that gathered round Alexander the Wonderful (who, as “Iskender,” grew to become the hero of a lot of oriental myths that had existed lengthy just before his birth) cast any doubt on his existence".
Today, 20 June, is his feast day, and this detail of a stained glass window by Christopher Webb is in the church of St Alban the Martyr, Holborn.
