Edward Nevill, de facto 15th (de jure 3rd) Baron Bergavenny (c. 1705 – 9 October 1724) was an English peer.
The son of Captain Edward Nevill, he succeeded to the barony upon the death of his elder brother, who had died without issue.
He married Katherine Tatton, on 6 May 1724, but died later that year without issue.
The Barony passed to his cousin, William Nevill, 16th Baron Bergavenny, even though his elder sister Jane (d. 1786) was still alive. This seems to imply that the barony passed by heirs male, at least in 1724, not by heir general.
