Just for laughs, this morning I contacted seven New Ross residents that I know. I asked them about "Charing Cross". Five of them had never heard of New Ross ever being called "Charing Cross" by anyone. Two of these five mentioned that some people referred to the village as "the Cross", in their opinion, because of the crossroad. The remaining two (members of the New Ross Historical Society) had never heard the area referred to as "Charing Cross" by anyone other than Leopold through her book, and by those who cite her book. So if it was ever called "Charing Cross", even colloquially, it would be news to the locals. Not a scientific survey by any means, but head and shoulders above pointing statues and secret codes.
... but whether New Ross was ever called "Charing Cross" colloquially is irrelevant. Loki is on the record, in multiple threads on this forum, stating that New Ross was called "Charing Cross". Not "some people may have referred to New Ross as 'Charing Cross'". I believe that this change from actual name to colloquial name could be termed as 'moving the goalposts'.
BTW ... Loki has used neither multiple sources nor logical reasoning. He has used hearsay and third party information. If he wanted to have any credibility as a researcher, he needs to find original sources.
