"Is this all real? Or has this been happening inside my head?"
The topic of this article is of a real-life subject that has been mentioned "in-universe" in a canon source. The Harry Potter Wiki is written from the perspective that all information presented in canon is true (e.g., Hogwarts really existed), and, as such, details contained in this article may differ from real world facts. |
Yorkshire is a county in northern England. In Yorkshire is the small village of Upper Flagley. Upper Flagley is one of the places in Great Britain where a number of magic families came to settle among Muggle neighbours. In the early 15th century, Beedle the Bard was born in Yorkshire. Two wizards seen in the Hog's Head in 1995 likely came from Yorkshire, as they were talking with Yorkshire accents.
Yorkshire was one the places where wizards celebrated Lord Voldemort's downfall by casting spells that resembled shooting stars to Muggles. Muggle viewers reported this to meteorologist Jim McGuffin, who gave a report about it on the news that evening.[1]
By the summer of 1993, Remus Lupin had been living in a tumbledown, semi-derelict cottage in Yorkshire.[2]
There was once a Quidditch team from Yorkshire and there is a Quidditch stadium located in the Yorkshire moors.
