So, J K Rowling has waved her magic wand once more and produced a fifth novel in the Harry Potter series and it appears the Potter magic is alive and well in Wiltshire, no more so than at Lacock Abbey…

The National Trust property featured in the first two Potter movies and since they were released Lacock Abbey has been on the must-see lists of tourists from all over the world.

Staff at Ottaker's Bookshop in Salisbury ready for the launch of the latest Harry Potter book.

BBC Wiltshire joined the visitors to take a look around as they attempted to match the reality with the fictional locations.

Take a look through our gallery of images and see what you recognise from Hogwarts!

First though, things you need to know about Lacock Abbey:

The fiction:

The Abbey's cloisters and side rooms were transformed into the classrooms at Hogwarts School while the location was also used for Harry's discovery of the Mirror of Erised.

The reality:

The Abbey was founded in 1232 and comprises: cloisters, sacristy, chapter house and monastic rooms, courtyard, brewery and bakehouse.

• Abbey converted into a country house c.1540

• Grounds feature a Victorian woodland garden with an 18th-century summer house, rose garden, botanic garden and ha-ha.

• William Henry Fox Talbot (1800–77), inventor of the negative/positive photographic process once a resident at Lacock Abbey.
