English inscription edit
Black Friars Gate
Black Friars (Freren) Gate, built in the 13th century, was named
after the Friars in the nearby Dominican Friary (Black Abbey)
who wore black robes, and were keyholders for the gate. A
gatekeeper, who lived in a tower above the gate,
collected taxes and controlled access into the
Anglo-Norman borough of Hightown.
