Bratton Clovelly is a village in 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.
