Environmental officials in the United Kingdom have asked Harry Potter fans to stop bringing socks and other items to a memorial on a beach in Pembrokeshire, Wales for the character Dobby, as they could be harmful to the local wildlife.

Environmental officials in the United Kingdom have asked Harry Potter fans to stop bringing socks and other items to a memorial for the character Dobby, as they could be harmful to the local wildlife. The popular destination — Freshwater West, a beach in Pembrokeshire, Wales — is home to a memorial for the fictional house elf, where fans from far and wide travel to pay their respects and lay socks in his honor.

Every Harry Potter fan remembers the moment Harry and the gang laid the beloved house elf to rest in a sandy grave on the beach. It's an unforgettable scene — so much so that, over a decade after"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1" premiered in theaters, fans of the franchise still visit Dobby's burial grounds to pay tribute to the loyal character.

"The Trust is asking visitors to only take photos when visiting the memorial to help protect the wider landscape," Hughes said."Items like socks, trinkets, and paint chips from painted pebbles could enter the marine environment and food chain and put wildlife at risk."
