World: Europe: Britain: London: Charing Cross

Center of metropolitan London. An open area on the south side of Trafalgar Square, between Whitehall and the Strand.


GREE: Mr. Melas and "Mr. Latimer" travelled in the cab through Charing Cross and up Shaftesbury Avenue, and out onto Oxford Street.

Mr. Melas:"I had ventured some remark as to this being a roundabout way to Kensington, when my words were arrested by the extraordinary conduct of my companion."


HOUN: Sir Henry Baskerville received a mysterious note during his stay at the Northumberland Hotel. It had a Charing Cross postmark.


THOR: Watson: "Somewhere in the vaults of the bank of Cox and Co., at Charing Cross, there is a travel-worn and battered tin dispatch box with my name, John H. Watson, M. D., Late Indian Army, painted upon the lid."
