This is one of three narrow, steep walkways that lead down to "The Gatherums", which is a park aligned with a path from Church St. to Aswell St. I understand it was named quite recently in memory of Kit Cat Lane, which ran past the end of it. I suspect the name has the same origins as "Kidgate". Names were given to each of the three alleyways leading into the Gatherums in order to indicate to people that they were public thoroughfares and not private entrances. See also: Image; Image
