Who was Drostan?

St Drostan's Kirk (photo: Stanley Bruce)St Drostan's KirkThe history of St. Drostan is not quite clear. He seems to have been a Celtic monk living in Scotland, in the sixth century A.D. His name appears at a few different places, and his life story seems to be a mixture of the lives of two different legendary monks. He was also known as St Drust, Trust, Throstan or Drostán mac Coscreig of Deer.
