REASONS FOR DESIGNATION: No. 18 and No. 20 (Campbell Cottage) is designated at Grade II for the following principal reasons: * This timber-framed cottage building dates to the C16, with C18 cladding, and its historic fabric has not been seriously compromised by C20 alterations. * It has group value with other listed rural buildings in Bones Lane (namely, Rock Cottage, and Nos. 15 and 16).
