Braithwell is a village and civil parish in the Metropolitan Borough of Doncaster in South Yorkshire, England.

[1] In 1289, the village obtained a Royal Charter entitling it to hold a weekly Tuesday market and an annual eight-day fair – an unusually long duration.

These were long discontinued by a survey of 1652, but a cross shaft survives with an inscription in Norman French which translates as "Jesus, son of Mary, think upon the brother of our king, I beseech you".

[3] The Church of St James in the village is a Grade II* listed building.
