Completed 14th century

Bratton Court in the hamlet of Bratton within the parish of Minehead Without, Somerset, England was built as a manor house, with a 14th-century open hall and 15th-century solar hall. It is within the Exmoor National Park and has been designated as a Grade I listed building.[1]

It was enlarged in the 17th century and extensively altered in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is now a farmhouse divided into 2 dwellings.[1]

The associated gatehouse and barn abutting west end of the court date from the 15th century and are also grade I listed.[2]

In 2002 a planning application was submitted to convert the stables into a cafe, craft centre, smokery and offices.[3]
