I took a look at it yesterday at the library (as someone else mentioned, it's a hefty volume and 
probably costs a pretty penny). I thought the article was rather boring but there are *lots* of 
pictures. They're kind of small but they are wide shots so you can see more of the rooms. As 
far as I can remember, the photographed sets include:

Dumbledore's office
Snape's office (which is interesting because it looks like there is a trompe l'oeil painting of 
arches on the wall)
Lockhart's classroom
Hagrid's hut
The Burrow living room
Gryffindor common room
Hogwarts library
Flourish & Blotts (obviously they have a varied selection of books on dragons)

Plus a few pictures of the cast, stuff we've already seen. The article mentioned the Slytherin 
common room (being under a lake - which I don't remember from the books) but I don't _think_ 
there was a picture. The article also mentioned that the tables (and the benches I assume) in 
the great hall are made of cement, not wood. Yikes, I feel sorry for the cast and extras!
