Brandis Corner is a hamlet on the A3072 within the civil parish of Holsworthy in Devon, England.

In the Cornish dialect, a brandis is a three-legged stool made of iron, or a three-cornered rest used for a kettle. In Devonshire, the name has been used for places shaped like this article, such as Brandis Corner and Brandis Lane near Crediton. [1]
