no pram, no problem.
draco staying with severus often was a winning situation for everyone: lucissa were able to get some downtime and could sneak in more date nights, severus would be forced to take care of himself and cook (and eat, if he wanted enough energy to chase after a hyperactive toddler) actual meals, and draco got exposed to people beyond the confines of wiltshire. severus’ neighbors didn’t even question the wee bairn’s visits and often came round to give him more choccy biccies than he deserved.

so...snape fans have speculated where cokeworth is located in the england map or what it's equivalence would be. i've seen people speculate it's probably up north perhaps. maybe snape's a northerner.
however.
it's been stated multiple times that cokeworth is in the midlands. so we're thinking northampton, shropshire, stoke, birmingham.
but i prefer to think it's in the black country. mainly for these reasons:
1. cokeworth is an industrial town, even if spinner's end seems mainly abandoned, and the black country was the birth of the industrial revolution.
2. the black country was known for steelworks, glassworks and cokeworks which is maybe where the town got its title from.
3. the black country suffered from high unemployment due to the closing down of a lot of industrial sites in the 60s and 70s which ties into the idea of spinner's end being practically desolate now, and also the strain on the snape's household's economic position.
4. petunia met vernon dursley and marries him. his job was being the director of a firm that made drills. which are made of steel. steelworks anyone?
5. which leads to my last and favourite theory; petunia marrying vernon who perhaps also came from the black country then decided to name their child after something close to home. a nearby town perhaps - dudley.

So Cokeworth is apparently meant to be a midlands industrial town. Which means Snape probably had a black country accent and this amuses me only because it is such an unsnapelike accent.
He probably trained himself out of it but I headcanon it still slips through when he's drunk.

Combining Unofficial Snapetober 2023 Prompts "Home" and "Smoke"
The chimney at the mill, too long shuttered and silent, no longer billowed mysterious foul vapors over his hometown but Severus, well hidden on the rooftop, could smoke his stolen cigarettes and pretend for a moment that Tobias still had good reasons to leave Spinner's End for long hours on a regular schedule.
I tried to remake the jacket Sev had in this picture from the 2022 Hot Snape Summer event

Severus & Lily + growing up in Cokeworth from my series The Darkest Days on Ao3
They giggle. Lily hands him the can. He takes a swig, then looks mournfully down at the packet of crisps, which is substantially less heavy now. “Sorry, I ate most of them already.” “That’s alright,” Lily says unconcernedly. “Wasn’t really hungry, anyway.” They swing, and talk about Hogwarts, and how excited they are— regretfully, Sev swipes the bag of crisps with a sticky, salty finger, trying to collect every last flavourful crumb.

A couple of my favorite close-ups from The Bravest Man, Chapter 6 (ao3, tumblr). The backgrounds and the faces are way too inconsistent, but hey, I do love the way these two panels fit in with one another.

SNAPEDOM I NEED HELP.
Can someone please tag or link that post from an account here that had a lot of resources and explabations about the way Snape should speak/words and terminology he should use as someone from Cokeworth (and ofc how Lily and Petunia talked, too).
I'm writing this fic but I know young Snape was not using his Professor's voice when he's alone in Spinner's End or when he's grabbing toads and following foxes with Lily.
So yeah, it was a really cool post and I cannot find it for the life of me and it's been MONTHS if not a whole years since I've been looking.
PLEASE! Or reblog so maybe it reaches someone who knows?
And please excuse my English, i'm learning slowly!
EDIT: thanks for the help, in the reblogs you can find the post and some other resources that afe helpful as well! Thanks again.

The flowchart for raising the dead was certainly interesting.  It covered everything from not wanting to raise the dead (”Solution: stop reading this book”) to determining whether one want to create a mobile corpse or just to pull up the dead for a chat.  Severus wasn’t so sure what “Contact the Gaunt Family if you wish to speak to a specific deceased” was all about and Lily was more interested in finding out what “DIY Pair Dadeni” meant over looking up “Inferi 101″
For prompt 22 ″Book/Reading” from @sxvxrxssnape‘s 2022 Snapetober Prompt List; more or less follows directly from last year’s Snapetober piece for the prompt “Old Books”
