Died c. 900. Modwenna is associated with Saint Edith of Polesworth. She was formerly venerated at Burton-on-Trent. Modwenna is a fairly obscure character who has been confused with the Irish saint Moninne, abbess of Killeavy (Attwater2, Benedictines).

In art, Modwenna is portrayed as an abbess with a red cow by her side (Roeder).
