Henry of Cocket

Henry of Cocket

Henry of Cocket (died 1127) was a Dane who lived in a hermitage on the island of Cocket, off the Northumberland coast. He died there in 1127. The word "saint" is often attributed to him, although there is no evidence that any veneration of him has ever taken place.
