The Hon. George Frederick Nugent Greville-Nugent (11 September 1842 – 11 May 1897), known as George Greville from 1883 to his death, was an Irish Liberal politician.[1]

Greville-Nugent was the son of Fulke Greville-Nugent, 1st Baron Greville who was Liberal MP for Longford from 1852 and 1869, and brother of Reginald Greville-Nugent who was also elected for the seat in 1868.

Upon his brother's unseating in 1870, Greville-Nugent was elected for the same seat at a by-election in 1870. However, he did not contest the next general election in 1874.[2]
