The Cottage, Hamilton Lane, Scraptoft ? detail
As the windows appear to be old, it is a bit puzzling to know how the brickwork with the initials and date appeared when the house was built. See http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5735099 for location.

The 'W' just visible on the right hand gable is an initial which originally accompanied a date, 1709, partly lost to extensions to the building. Listed Grade II. The hall gives its name to a large council estate of Leicester City Council.

Pear Tree Stores and Rose Cottage, Scraptoft
The stores have probably been trading here for some time, although unlikely to go back quite as far as the house, which is dated 1703 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5735094 . Rose Cottage, with the thatched roof, dates from around the same time, but has been substantially modernised. Both buildings are Listed Grade II, Rose Cottage for group value only.

This has lost much of its village character with the advent of major housing development round and about. The local Co-operative store still houses a local Post Office.
