Concealed behind the scenes, this area is bustling with magical shops stacked closely together.
Fans of the books and films will recognize it as the location where the young wizard acquires his first wand and adopts his owl, Hedwig.
An insider shared: “There is an entirely new section that wasn’t included in the original films.
“It feels completely different.
“The street has two levels.
“The wand shop has some alterations, but the primary distinction lies with the bank.”
“I wasn’t present during the filming, so I don’t have extensive knowledge of the plot.”
They added: “I don't believe they are permitted to replicate elements from the films, aside from the overarching story, so the design will be quite distinct.
“The joke shop has been relocated and looks nothing like the original.”
The series is set to premiere in 2027.
