Court Barn, West Bradley is another grange barn belonging to Glastonbury Abbey. It is the smallest of the surviving barns and now stands alone as a simple field barn. It was repaired and given to the National Trust by the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings in 1938.

The barn was probably built in the early 15th Century.It has a small, central carriage or wagon porch to the north and south sides, but these are not gabled, instead the roof slopes down to cover them. There is some evidence that there were originally windbraces in the roof, but these have been replaced by long diagonal braces.
