Sanitised footpath
Before the housing development on the left of the path, this was a rural path alongside a small stream, the Scraptoft Brook. The trees have been heavily thinned and the path sanitised with kerbs and hard surfacing.

Grotto, The Mound, Scraptoft
Originally part of the grounds of Scraptoft Hall, this is a late 18th century folly. Its location close to post-war housing estates on the outskirts of Leicester has rendered it vulnerable to vandals. The roof, which was vaulted, originally came forward to the front wall. The interior was decorated with shells http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5734949 and coloured stone, but these have been largely broken off. Listed Grade II.
