the Owlery is located in the West Tower and delivers mail to students once a day, at breakfast - though more urgent messages are frequently delivered to student's dormitories. There are also a number of school owls, which can be used by students who do not own an owl themselves.

[The Owlery is to be used not only for RP, but for any owl based messages sent from character to character.
To send an owl, simply start a thread with the sender and recipient in the title, i.e.: 'Draco Malfoy to Blaise Zabini' and maintain your correspondence through the same thread]

The Herbology Greenhouses are the most likely place to find Professor Sprout, but beware of dangerous plants lurking around the place as you never know what's going to attack when you have your back turned. In the greenhouses you can do pretty much anything plant related from taking clippings for potions, potting new plants, to growing pot. (Note - this is a joke, do not start trying to grow pot in the greenhouses.. Well, unless you're really sneaky about it..)

Hagrid can usually be found here, tending to one of his many animals/beasts. Friends of Hagrid can drop by for crumpets and tea any time. Aside from that, you will want to visit the hut if you're taking Care of Magical creatures - only a select number of students usually end up getting injured in such events.

By pressing a particular knot on the trunk, one can gain access to the passageway leading to the shrieking shack - although such information is not widely known.
For most of you, it's likely a bad idea to go anywhere near this thing. If you do decide to go on a suicide mission however, make sure you've got your name stitched into your underwear so we can identify the body.

The docks are a popular haunt of many students during summer due to not only the beautiful views when the sun is setting, but the fact that it's far from the castle and from roaming professors eyes. It is located to one end of the lake, and is probably the best place to go to if you want a summertime swim.

Full of danger. Expect to get in serious trouble if you get caught wandering into the Forest. In this place there are Centaurs, Unicorns and maybe the odd werewolf here and there. As well as a whole hoard of Acromantulas who quite like eating school children if given the oppertunity.

Zonko's is a favourite place for Hogwarts students to shop. They carry jokes and tricks to fulfill even Fred's and George's wildest dreams, including Dungbombs, Hiccup Sweets, Frog Spawn Soap, and Nose-Biting Teacups.

A sweetshop, owned by Ambrosius Flume and his wife, which is filled with shelves upon shelves of the most succulent-looking sweets imaginable. In addition to the standard wizarding candy that is sold there, the owners also make their own fudge and chocolate.

Down in the cellar of the shop, amidst the boxes and wooden crates and known to only a select few people, is a trap door in the dusty floor - which opens to reveal a secret passageway to Hogwarts.

A well-known inn and a frequent haunt of Hogwarts students. It's warm and comfortable, is packed to the brim most days, and is a great spot to drink butterbeer; although they also serve firewhisky, gillywater, mulled mead, red currant rum, and even cherry syrup and soda with ice and an umbrella. The owner of the bar is Madam Rosmerta.

Rumored to be "the most haunted building in Britain," the Shrieking Shack is a favorite stop on any Hogsmeade visit.
The shack cannot be broken into from the outside; it must be entered instead through a secret passageway, the mouth of which lies under the Whomping Willow.

Located just off the high street, the Inn has been a feature for hundreds of years. The Clientèle are.. interesting, shall we say, and it isn't advised for most students to go drinking butterbeers in this place. (You never know what you could catch.) The pub is run by Aberforth; a generally quite odd and sullen fellow, with a peculiar fascination with goats...
