Borough Market (7 Stoney Street)
About This Harry Potter Filming Location
Borough Market, London’s oldest food market, has traded for more than 900 years. Originally held in the middle of Borough High Street, the market caused such congestion that an Act of Parliament in 1756 moved it off the road. Today its maze of stalls sits beneath railway arches, offering artisan produce and street food. The quiet corner at 7 Stoney Street houses a small shopfront that became a film landmark—the exterior of the Leaky Cauldron in the third Harry Potter film. Visitors browse under wrought‑iron canopies, passing florists, cheesemongers and bakers in a space that feels both timeless and vibrant.
