| There's a cave at Castleton, Derbyshire known as the Devil's Arse which was once believed to be the entrance to hell. This is the place where they filmed the Silver Chair |

| Perhaps it was near the city gallows. Criminals would often be executed outside the city and buried under the scaffold. It may have been called hellgate because it was the last place a prisoner would walk through before leaving his mortal life |
