Vanlieu Corners (also Van Liew's Corners) is an unincorporated community in East Amwell Township in Hunterdon County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.[1][2]

In 1881, the settlement consisted of a small cluster of residences, surrounding the Chamberlin & Van Liew store. Vanlieu Corners was in the same school district as Wertsville.[3] Today, the area is at the corner of Wertsville Road (County Route 602) and Rileyville Road (CR 607) and consists of mostly farmland on the north slope of the Sourland Mountain.[4]
