Aldgate is an area of Central London, England, within the City of London. is located 2.3 miles (4 km) east north-east of Charing Cross. It lies within the Historic County of Middlesex. It was the eastern-most gateway through the London Wall leading from the City of London to Whitechapel and the East End of London. It gives its name to a City ward bounded by White Kennet Street in the north and Crutched Friars in the south, taking in Leadenhall and Fenchurch Streets, which remain principal thoroughfares through the City, each splitting from the short street named Aldgate that connects to Aldgate High Street.
