Any body any idea where Whipma Whompa gate can be found ?

[NazNomad]

It's a racehorse, so I'm guessing in a stable.

[NazNomad]

... but it's spelled - Whipma Whopma Gate

[Fibonacci]

York has a street bizarrely-named whipma-whopma-gate

I believe it got its name as rogues used to be whipped along the length of the street.
