Asian_Lovr2:

Try looking in -

Speculative Geography:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPforGrownups/links/Speculative_Geograph_000972354701/

For likely Hogwarts locations-
http://www.homestead.com/BlueMoonMarket/Files/Hogwarts/hogwarts1.htm

These are based on geographic remoteness; lack of near-by towns,roads,
and rail, and references implied in the book that indicate that
Hogwarts is far north.

In the distant past some one did a astronomical analysis of various
reference to sighting star and the moon in the latest book. In that we
determined the coordinates of the areas marked on my maps. I'm trying
to search that information out, but haven't found it yet. (Not sure
which group it was in, or who all was involved.)

If you need coordinates for any place, email me with the place names
and I can look them up on my computer/CD-ROM maps very quickly.

Don't know it that helps.
