Built by Daisy Dodderidge around 1500 "to serve as a gateway between the non-wizarding world and Diagon Alley", the Leaky Cauldron has remained a famous and popular place for five hundred years. Located not in Diagon Alley proper but on the outside, on Charing Cross Road in the heart of London.

The tavern sees quite a lot of traffic and is frequently crowded. While this can be partly attributed to its reputation as a welcoming place, it also seems to largely be due to it location as a hub for Diagon Alley.

Diagon Alley is a magical highstreet, situated in London, but hidden from muggle eyes. The only way to reach this enchanted place is through the inn, The Leaky Cauldron.
Once through, you can buy anything your heart desires. From magical pets to wands and school robes, this is an essential destination for all Hogwarts students.

Just around the corner from Diagon Alley lies a dark, twisting alleyway devoted to the Dark Arts: Knockturn Alley. the shops and the street vendors one can purchase, among other things, shrunken heads, poisonous candles, human-looking fingernails, and Flesh-Eating Slug Repellent.

Once a month, every student who is in the third year or above is permitted to visit the village of Hogsmeade. Provided, of course, they have got their permission slip signed by a parent or guardian. It is the only all-wizarding community left in Britain and although not technically in the school grounds, close enough to merit a place in this category.

The Ministry of Magic is the governing body for the magical community of Britain. The Ministry connects the British Government to the wizarding world. Its headquarters is in central London, deep underground. It is headed by the Minister for Magic.

Founded nearly 500 years ago, St. Mungo's Hospital is located, hidden, in London.
With six floors of healers treating all kinds of magically-inflicted injuries, Hogwarts students sometimes visit the hospital on work-experience trips, or else to visit ill relatives or friends.

The Knight Bus is a heavily enchanted, purple, triple-decker bus that transports witches and wizards. It’s faster than travelling by broomstick, but not as fast as near instantaneous Floo Powder and Apparating. The bus charges for the service; amenities such as hot-water bottles, toothbrushes, and hot chocolate are available for an extra fee.

This board is meant to be your everywhere and anywhere – if you have a certain place you’d like to role play and isn’t included within our main boards (i.e. unlisted stores, houses/homes, rooms in Hogwarts – rarely used locations, in short) then please post threads here.

King's Cross Station is the muggle location of platform nine-and-three-quarters. In addition, since number twelve Grimmauld Place is located within a twenty minute walk of King's Cross, it must be located within about a mile of the station, so you never know. You may run into our esteemed Black family from time to time. On September, you can see it full of kids with trunks and cages and running straight into a column. Funny thing, eh?

Running late? Make a dash for the Underground—or the tube, however you wish to call it. Public transportation is definitely not for everybody, so make sure your pockets are guarded when you step inside it.

Here is where you may post threads located at your character’s homes. These muggle communities have lately seen magical activity due to the heightened fear and caution caused by The Dark Lord’s rise and the sudden exodus of our finest wizarding families from their previous residences. Anything to keep death at bay.

Inside is a list of sub-boards for general downtown locations. Downtown is a term primarily used to refer to a city's core or central business district, usually in a geographical, commercial, and community sense.
