Malfoy Manor The Malfoy Manor is located in Wiltshire, in south-west England. It's a fine old house lived in for generations by the Malfoys, an old wizarding family that prides itself on having pure bloodlines. The mansion comes complete with a house-elf. Under the drawing room floor is a secret compartment where the current owner, Draco Malfoy, keeps his Dark Arts items.	0	0	-- In: ---- By:
Godric's Hollow Godric's Hollow is a Muggle village where Lily and James Potter went into hiding. Some have suggested that the name of the village comes from Godric Gryffindor, one of the founders of Hogwarts and the founder of Gryffindor House, to which a number of the Potters have belonged.	0	0	-- In: ---- By:
Little Hangleton ; Riddle House The Riddle family was a singularly unpleasant, upper class family who fifty years ago lived in the village of Little Hangleton in a large manor house ('Riddle House') on a hill, overlooking a graveyard and a church.	0	0	-- In: ---- By:
Number Twelve Grimmauld Place Unplottable and hidden away behind a Fidelius Charm, between two shabby London Muggle houses, is number twelve Grimmauld Place. This is the family home of the Noble and Most Ancient House of Black, one of the most prominent pure-blood wizarding families. The house is derelict, a ruin of its former self. The mistress of the house, Mrs. Black, died c. 1985, and since then "stuff's been breeding in here," as Hermione has said. Her eldest son, Sirius, became the owner of the place after his mother's death. Sirius' father put "every security measure known to wizard-kind on the house." The house is located a twenty-minute walk (approximately one mile) from King's Cross Station. The home went to Harry when Sirius died.	0	0	-- In: ---- By:
The Burrow The Burrow is a wizard house, owned by the Weasley family. It's at least four stories tall, built so crazily that it must certainly be held up by magic. It's located outside of the village of Ottery St. Catchpole, but so well hidden that the postman may not even know where it is. It has a ghoul in the attic and gnomes in the garden.	0	0	-- In: ---- By:

Muggle London You guessed it. This is where you'll more often than not find the muggles and a few wizards trying to blend in. But don't think that just because it's 'Muggle' London that you won't run into wizards and witches. They're just a lot more incognito.	0	0	-- In: ---- By:
the Graveyard The Riddle Family is buried here, and it is also here that Cedric was murdered. Beware should anyone attempt to come here...death will be imminent.	0	0	-- In: ---- By:
Lestrange Manor In days past it was sparkling white. Now, it is a dirty, gray shell of its former self. The lawn is littered with nightshade and wolfs bane. The plank of the wraparound porch is warped and cracked leading to decayed and deteriorating ruins. To move beyond the heavy ebony door fills guests with inarticulate horror.	0	0	-- In: ---- By:
Spinner's End Snape's summer house is at the end of a row. Although the sitting room accommodates an armchair and a sofa it is very small. The sitting room has a door opening directly onto the street, one internal door leading to a kitchen, and another leading to a narrow staircase. Upstairs there are at least two bedrooms. It's a reasonable surmise, incidentally, that all the rooms are small, not just the sitting room. Snape is so short of space that he has to hang bookcases on the backs of doors (one wonders how they open without “binding” — maybe it's magic!), so one would assume that if he had, for example, a large kitchen he would swap the rooms around and make the biggest room his sitting room.	0	0	-- In: ---- By:
