Knights Hill

[edit]

Certainly I can find nothing on google to suggest these existed, nor do I know of anyone locally who has heard of them. I think these need sourcing before inserting: * Knights' Hill (near West Dulwich, Norwood Road & Tulse Hill) Regan123 00:00, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Helpful website

[edit]

... so many listed projects (more than sections in the article), so few actually doing anything for these articles ... Kbthompson (talk) 09:47, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Other gates

[edit]

Wasn't there also; Billingsgate (south of Aldgate) St John's Gate (west of Aldersgate) ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Athosfolk (talkcontribs) 11:06, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edits

[edit]

I've expanded the History section a bit; I've put some text in and absorbed the sections that just had links in. I hope that's OK with everyone. Swanny18 (talk) 13:17, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

City gates

[edit]

This article has a number of unsourced statements I'm not sure about. For example, I've read elsewhere that the gates were opened at 6 am but in the winter sunrise is after 8 am in London. I find it hard to believe the gates weren't opened until then. TheMathemagician (talk) 09:39, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
