Camp Bell is a historic house in Lebanon, Tennessee, United States. It was built circa 1835 for William Seawell.[2] It was designed in the Greek Revival architectural style. It was later purchased by the Campbell family, whose son, William B. Campbell, became the 14th Governor of Tennessee; he later died in the house.[2] It remained in the family; by the 1982[clarification needed], it was owned by his great-granddaughter, Mary Williamson Thomas.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 15, 1982.[3]
