Thanks to Harry Potter Folklore.


Quote:
Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. What do you know about Diagon Alley?
Because it’s far more than just a shopping center for Britain’s wizards and witches. Diagon Alley’s history stretches back hundreds of years, and survived countless Goblin rebellions, wars with dark wizards, and even witch hunts.

Today, we’re going to take a look at Diagon Alley’s secret history, and find out how it came to be.

Hmmm ... All those shops must take up a vast amount of space in downtown London. I wonder how this large area is explained to muggles.
Malfoys and Weasley's came from France? Wow ... have I missed a lot of back history (or completely forgotten). When did Rowling release this info?


Carkitt market? who knew? How can I get there ... are muggles able to get a house elf at the House Elf Placement Agency?
Horizont alley? again, who knew!
TerrorTours ... LOL - odd name for a vacation agency don't you think?


thanks so much for the link Figgy!
the commentator didn't really give a lot of history, but the few suggestions he threw out at us were good

I had heard about Terror Tours before, but not ever the side streets.

I wonder if the other markets / streets are from fandom.
Do you know if JKR released information about this?

Mind you I haven't been on her site for a while, so maybe she has included far more back stories that I can keep up with.
