George Nevill, de facto 12th (de jure 1st) Baron Bergavenny (21 April 1665 – 26 March 1695) was an English peer.

The son of George Nevill, 11th Baron Bergavenny and Mary Gifford, he succeeded to the Barony upon the death of his father.

He was raised by his widowed mother. During the Popish Plot, and particularly given the fate of the "Five Catholic Lords", she became understandably concerned about his safety, and took him to live abroad for a time.

He married Honora Belasyse, daughter of John Belasyse, 1st Baron Belasyse and his third wife Lady Anne Paulet.

He died on 26 March 1695.

As he died without issue, the Barony passed to his 2nd cousin once removed, also named George Nevill.
