Ville-ès-Nouaux is a Neolithic site, located in the parish of Saint Helier on the island of Jersey. It consists of a gallery tomb and a dolmen surrounded by a stone circle.

The complex dates back to the late Neolithic period (2800–2000 BC).{{cite book| author = Heather Sebire| title = The Archaeology and Early History of the Channel Islands| publisher = Tempus| location = Stroud| year = 2005| page = 85| isbn = 0-7524-3449-7}} The gallery tomb, with the entrance facing south, is 5.8 meters long.
