Brief History


The locality originally called Madden's Corner, was named after Charing Cross, London, England by Waverley Council on 6 September 1859.[1][2]


Charing Cross was once planned by the council to be the commercial and retail centre of Waverley. It was a much more significant shopping area prior to the rise in importance of Bondi Junction. It fell into decline with shops closing. However, the recent increase of interest in Charing Cross is reflecting the gentrification of the area with the moving in of up-market clothing and gourmet food stores and restaurants.



Sport and Recreation


Charing Cross is represented in one of the most popular sporting competitions across Australia, the National Rugby League competition, by the local team the Sydney Roosters, officially the Eastern Suburbs District Rugby League Football Club (ESDRLFC). St Charles Junior Rugby League Club, one of the junior clubs in the Roosters Juniors, is also based near Charing Cross.

I referred javanica documentation processEntryBatch_fallback processEntryBackup finalFallback @Service public class DummyService private static final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(DummyService.class); //batch processing method public void processEntry(List<String> msg) //batch processing throw new RuntimeException("Exception while batch processing"); //processing one-by-one @HystrixCommand(fallbackMethod="finalFallback") public ...
