Potter about town to learn some local history

Your kids better know their Hippogriffs from their Herbology if they’re going to participate in fun-filled summer celebration of Harry Potter in a West Cork town.

The town of Bandon has a very special link with the smash-hit JK Rowling series.

It’s the birthplace of the entirely fictional Bandon Banshee mentioned by Gilderoy Lockhart in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
