Scraptoft has Conservation Area status and the impact of another 1200 houses (in addition to the 900 already built or designated to be) will have a detrimental impact upon the unique nature of the village. There are several listed buildings within the central area each with different characteristics. The outer boundaries of area are of a semi - rural nature which help to maintain its unique ambiance. Scraptoft has already borne the brunt of several housing developments encroaching upon it, along with the extra traffic, and cannot absorb anymore.
