What makes =me= think "Godric's Hollow" is a village is the name
itself. It sounds to me like a geographical feature (probably a
small valley) and by association, the village that's built
there. Manor houses tend to be called things like "Place" or
"Court" or "Hall" or "Priory" or "Castle" or something like that
-- not "Hollow."
