Bratton Clovelly is a village in west Devon, England.

The church is 15th-century, but with many attractive Norman features. The village stocks are kept in the belfry.

The village is thought to be the birthplace of influential 13th-century jurist Henry de Bracton; however, this claim is also made for at least two other places.
