Brannoc of Braunton or Saint Brannock was a Christian saint associated with the village of Braunton in the English county of Devon. Brannock is believed to have migrated from South Wales to establish a monastery at Braunton in the 6th century. He is believed to have been buried there. It is also believed that he built his church on a hill overlooking Braunton but it has since collapsed. In a dream he was told to look for a sow and piglets for the site to build his new church.
