- "They turned right down the narrow alleyway […] which formed a short cut between Magnolia Crescent and Wisteria Walk. It was empty and much darker than the streets it linked because there were no streetlamps. Their footsteps were muffled between garage walls on one side and a high fence on the other."
- —Description.[src]
There was a narrow, poorly illuminated alleyway linking Magnolia Crescent and Wisteria Walk in the town of Little Whinging, Surrey.[1] It was located between the garage of 2 Magnolia Crescent[2] and a high fence.[1]
History[]
1993[]
On August 6, 1993, this alleyway[1] was where Harry Potter first saw Sirius Black in his Animagus dog form.[2]
1995[]
This alley was also the setting of the Dementor attack on Harry Potter and Dudley Dursley[1] ordered by Dolores Umbridge in an attempt to silence the former on the events surrounding the Return of the Dark Lord.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
- This alleyway never actually features in any of the films. In the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry sees Sirius near the playground at Magnolia Road and in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the Dementor attack takes place in an underpass.
