Hampshire

"The black, vampire-infested forest of central Romania is not so bleak and forbidding a place than the twisted heart of the New Forest in Hampshire, England."

- Gilderoy Lockhart, Marauding with Monsters

Hampshire is a county in southern England. The New Forest in Hampshire is home to a variety of magical creatures, such as Gytrashes and Wild Ponies.

Hampshire was also, in the late sixteenth or early seventeenth century, home to the hamlet of Little Dropping, which was blown up sometime between the years of 1568 and 1623 after wizard Archibald Alderton tried to magically mix a birthday cake.
