"I well remember the time when, during a particularly satisfying sojourn with some fans of mine in the wilds of Essex, I offered to clear a pathway in their quaint, suburban yard (I quail from terming this square of scrub and turf a 'garden'), which had been ubiquitously blocked by several Horklumps."
Gilderoy Lockhart, Marauding with Monsters[src]

This quaint suburban yard belonged to some fans of Gilderoy Lockhart's. It was located in the wilds of Essex, and it was deemed by Lockhart a "square of scrub and turf", in comparison to his eight acre-long and well manicured garden.

History[]

In Marauding with Monsters, Gilderoy Lockhart wrote of the sojourn he spent in these fans' house. He claimed to have ridden his fans' yard of Horklumps.[1] The veracity of these claims is doubtful, as Lockhart was known to have stolen other wizard's achievements. Yet it is not entirely impossible, as the Horklump has a Ministry classification of one star; the only other creature with this insulting classification being the infamous Flobberworm.
