Behind the scenesEdit

There was a milkman who served residents in Budleigh Babberton.
Budleigh Salterton in the south west is situated close to Topsham, near the university city where J. K. Rowling studied and began to write her first Harry Potter books.
It could also be based on the village of East Budleigh, located up the river from Budleigh Salterton, and a far better candidate for the location, as it is not on the sea, its inland.
Baberton is the name of a suburb in Edinburgh - the city where Rowling currently resides.
In the movie version of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the scenes that were set in Budleigh Babberton were filmed in Lackock, Wiltshire.^[1]
