Not based on some of what I found in York while on TDY... Where the
entries to the old town -- what an American might call a gate -- were all
named <something>bar, and the streets passing through those tended to have
names ending in gate. "Micklegate Bar Museum", for example, where
Micklegate passes through the city wall. Otherside of the old town has
Goodramgate turning into Monksgate as it passes through... Monk Bar.
Walmgate passes through Walmgate Bar
The quote's not even mine -- I encountered it decades ago.
