Scraptoft Hall, Grade II* listed house in Scraptoft, England.

The Georgian residence features a five-window frontage made of ashlar stone, rising three stories above a basement level with decorative iron gates.

The hall was built in 1723 for Lady Letitia Wigley on the foundation of a previous 17th-century house, with additions made in 1896.

The building served as the City of Leicester College of Education from 1954, later becoming part of De Montfort University until 2003.

The former country house has been transformed into residential apartments while maintaining its protected status as a Grade II* listed building.

William Edney, a notable craftsman of the period, designed the ornamental gates that still stand at the entrance of the property.
