Description

Northgate Railway Station is a railway station built around 1850 for the Great Northern Railway Company, with some alterations made in the 20th century. The station is constructed from brick, timber, and cast iron, featuring hipped and gabled slate roofs along with various tall chimney stacks. The main brick station and entrance blocks have undergone significant changes. The building is single and two storeys high, with a total of 22 bays.

The southern range, which contains waiting rooms, has a distinctive construction with iron posts that extend above the roof, supporting a valanced canopy through suspension rods. Under the canopy, there are traceried brackets. The waiting room section, which consists of five bays, includes a wooden panelled dado and large glazing bar windows above, along with several half-glazed windows. The northern brick range has two doorways and four glazing bar sash windows, four of which have round heads, while two on the right feature splayed lintels. At the right end of this range, there is a large bracket clock. A single storey range to the north houses the booking office and mainly consists of round-headed openings. The entrance front displays irregular fenestration, primarily featuring glazing bar sashes. The interior was refitted in the late 20th century.
