Gave upon
Hi
She saw him out and then stood at the door for several
minutes, calling, ‘Puss, puss,’ at intervals. The cat did not
return, and finally she closed the door and locked it, went
through to the kitchen and locked the door that gave upon
the little walled yard.
What does "gave upon" mean here? I would say it just means "leading to".
