Boyd’s Bible Dictionary:

One of the gates of Jerusalem as rebuilt by Nehemiah
(Neh. 3:1,32; 12:391Then Eliashib the high priest rose up with his brethren the priests, and they builded the sheep gate; they sanctified it, and set up the doors of it; even unto the tower of Meah they sanctified it, unto the tower of Hananeel. (Nehemiah 3:1)
32And between the going up of the corner unto the sheep gate repaired the goldsmiths and the merchants. (Nehemiah 3:32)
39And from above the gate of Ephraim, and above the old gate, and above the fish gate, and the tower of Hananeel, and the tower of Meah, even unto the sheep gate: and they stood still in the prison gate. (Nehemiah 12:39)
).
