thread_title:  Where's Godric Hollow in Book 6? 

message: "As for the town's exact location, there are speculations that Godric's Hollow is somewhere in Wales (thus making Harry Potter of Welsh origin). The reason for this speculation is the fact that, when carrying baby Harry from Godric's Hollow to Little Whinging in Surrey, Rubeus Hagrid flew over Bristol - which is at the border between England and Wales."
Bristol is actually in the Northernmost part of South West England. In a direct line, North Somerset and North Devon & Northernmost Cornwall are more likely places, whilst if it had been in South Wales Hagrid would have flown over Gloucester. Given the Celtic Name, then we're more than likely looking at Cornwall.

:As the map on this page shows, Bristol is not in a direct line from Cornwall to Surrey. Also, there is nothing Celtic about the name. Godric is an Anglo-Saxon personal name and the word "hollow" is also of Old English origin, according to my dictionary. 167.7.30.194 18:56, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Location of Godrics Hollow 

message: Here are the quotations for the references I inserted:
Book 1, Ch.1
“What they're saying,” {Professor McGonagall} pressed on, “is that last night Voldemort turned up in Godric’s Hollow. He went to find the Potters. The rumor is that Lily and James Potter are - are - that they’re - dead .”
Dumbledore bowed his head. Professor McGonagall gasped.
Book 6, Ch.30
“I thought I might go back to Godric's Hollow,” Harry muttered. He had had the idea in
his head ever since the night of Dumbledore's death. “For me, it started there, all of it. I've
just got a feeling I need to go there. And I can visit my parents' graves, I'd like that.”
