A watchman at a gate had the responsibility to keep an eye over traffic through the gate, opening or closing the gate if necessary. He kept an eye on the road to see who was coming, and possibly on the people and goods going through the gate to see that nothing suspicious happened.
Watchmen in general patrolled the towns and cities, watching for any dangers or illegal activities they might see. They also called hours in some places where there was some way for them to keep time.

They looked over the town and were responsible for secrurity.
Towns in medieval Europe were dangerous places because they were noisy, crowded, and often unsafe. Pickpockets and theives would always be on the lookout for travelers with money in their pockets. Towns didn't have streetlights, so night Watchmen patrolled the streets with candle lanterns to deter (discourage) criminals. -Carol
