Saint Brelade is one of the twelve parishes of Jersey. Its population was 10,568 as of 2011, and it occupies the southwestern part of the island. It is the only parish to border only one other parish, St. Peter. The parish is the second-largest parish by surface area, covering 7,103 vergées , which is 11% of the total land surface of the island.
Its name is derived from a 6th-century Celtic or Welsh "wandering saint" named Branwalator or Saint Brelade , who is said to have been the son of the Cornish king, Kenen. He is also said to have been a disciple of Samson of Dol, and worked with this churchman in Cornwall and the Channel Islands. A large section of the Jersey Railway linking La Corbière with Saint Helier ran through the parish between 1870 and 1936.
