Battleborough is a hamlet at the foot of Brent Knoll in the County of Somerset.

Local legend suggests that the name of the hamlet refers to an ancient battle between Celts and Danes.

This small community comes under the Parish Council of neighbouring Brent Knoll village but is separated from there by fields. It sits along the A38 and consists of 4 homes, including Battleborough Farm a Grade 2 listed building dating from C17th.

Battleborough Lane is the only road in the hamlet and is now cut in half by fields, the other half being in Brent Knoll village itself.
