I conducted a frequency averaging procedure which left me with the data frame

as.character or as.factor):

18   (160,180] 7.796204

I am able to present the data as a histogram using barplot(), but on the
x-axis I would like to see the values that separate (i.e. that are located
between) my various bins (i.e. seq(-180,180,20)).  Thus 0 would appear
directly under the centre line that separates (-20,0] and (0,20], etc.

barplot(angledist$Freq, xlab="Turning Angle", ylab="Average frequency (%)",
ylim=c(0,10))

?names.arg, ?xlim don't seem to do it but I could be wrong....

Two comments:

1. In fact you probably want a histpgram on your un-cut()-ted data and specify breaks. A barplot seems to be misleading for originally continuous data.

2. You can suppress x-axis labels by specifying the argument xaxt="n" and add your own x-axis later on by a call to axis() which allows to specify the tick mark positions.
