Despite the newspaper account the junction described Montague St, Camden Row, Lower Camden street, Wexford Street is about 300 yards from Aungier street so suggest that junction Wexford Street and Camden Street would be more accurate. The shop where people were assisted Douglas drapers was there until the 1980s.
