(Ciolburga, or Ceolburh) was abbess of Beorclea or Berkeley. Her name is attached to a charter of Offa, king of Mercia, A.D. 793, marked spurious or doubtful by Kemble. From her being mentioned in the Saxon chronicle, where her death is placed in A.D. 805, i.e. probably 807, she must have been a person of some note.
