A hinge for a gate comprises spigot 16 and a loop 12 for receiving the spigot wherein the shape of the inner surface of the loop 28a/b and the outer surface of the spigot cooperate to limit the opening of the hinge. Preferably the inner surface is substantially cylindrical from which projects at least one cam or stop 28a/b which engages with a face of the spigot which may be rectangular in cross section. The stops may be opposite each other, allowing the gate to move 90° in either direction. The hinge may also comprise a top cover 11, a stop plate incorporating the hinge loop, a bearing plate 14 comprising an inner cylindrical bearing surface 26, a bearing 13 with a hole 24 for receiving a portion of the spigot and an outer cylindrical bearing surface 25 that rotates against the inner bearing surface 26, and a bearing retaining plate 15 secured to the top cover to retain the stop plate, bearing and bearing plate within the bodywork of the cover.
