Northfields and Northgate House

This is a pair of early 19th-century houses located on the south side of North Street in Burnham Market. The houses are built of red brick with red pantiled roofs. Northfields, on the east side, is three storeys high with five bays. It features single sash windows on the ground floor and two on both the first and second floors, all with glazing bars. The elaborate wooden doorcase has fluted pilasters, Ionic capitals, an entablature with a dentilled frieze, and a cornice. Northgate House, to the west, is also three storeys high with three bays, and has one ground-floor window and three on each of the first and second floors, featuring glazing bars. Its wooden doorcase mirrors that of Northfields, but is wider, with a two-leaf door of raised and fielded panels above which is glazed with margin lights and a rectangular fanlight with metal glazing bars depicting upright swags. A boarded cart entrance, with a segmental brick arch, separates the two houses. There are two end stacks and one axial stack. The returns are constructed of clunch and flint.
