This small street is adjunction to Carpenter Street and Ewe Hai Street. It is also known as “Little Side Street” (横街仔) or “Side Street” (它横街). It leads to Main Bazaar and at the end of the street was a gate leading to the garden of the Diocese of Kuching. The bishops and church mission used this gate to do their marketing at the bazaar. The gate called as the “Bishop’s Gate” is where the street gained its name. In 1993, the government built a road behind the Bishop’s gate and the gate has lost its original function. The once prominent gate is now reduced to its Belian frame.
下横街
下横街只是亚答街和友海街交界处的小巷子，也有人叫它横街、横街仔。街头通向海唇街，街尾有一扇门，过去是圣公会园区的后门，方便教会的主教和其他人员通过这里下去巴刹买东西，这扇门就被称为主教门，如此一说街名典故就清楚了。1993年，政府将主教门后方的地段辟成马路，这扇门就失去了原有的用途，如今只剩下盐木门框立在原处。
