Diagon Alley North Side was the northern part of Diagon Alley, comprised of the area closest to the Leaky Cauldron and, thus, closest to Charing Cross Road and Muggle London.[1]
Commercial buildings lined the two sides of the cobbled street, and among them stood an archway into the nearby Knockturn Alley. Several objects on display lined the shopfronts, such as cauldrons, broomsticks and barrels, and hanging above them were signs bearing the names of the shops.[1]
Walking along Diagon Alley North led to the tall white main offices of Gringotts Wizarding Bank, and turning to the left led to Diagon Alley South.[1]

Behind the scenes[]
- The "Diagon Alley North Side" and "Diagon Alley South Side" were first introduced in the original Pottermore site.[1]
- Ever since Pottermore had its revamp on 31 July 2013, the designations "Diagon Alley South Side" and "Diagon Alley North Side" were removed and replaced with "More Shops" and "Back to Shops", respectively.
- This change, however, only applied to the British English version of the site, with the American English version still using the North Side and South Side designations.
- In the deluxe editions of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone: Illustrated Edition and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets: Illustrated Edition, additional Diagon Alley shops illustrated by Jim Kay are identified to be on the "North Side".[4][5]
