Very realistic plastic film prop of the former home of James and Lily Potter, murdered by Voldemort and leaving Harry Potter with his signature lightning bolt scar. At the Warner Brothers Studio Tour http://www.wbstudiotour.co.uk/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=harry+potter&utm_campaign=harry+potter Most of the cottage was still standing, though entirely covered in the dark ivy and snow, but the right side of the top floor had been blown apart; that, Harry was sure, was where the curse had backfired. He and Hermione stood at the gate, gazing up at the wreck of what must once have been a cottage just like those that flanked it. "I wonder why nobody's ever rebuilt it?" whispered Hermione "Maybe you can't rebuild it?" Harry replied.
