Description
No 16 Northgate Street is a notable 18th-century building featuring a parapet, a dentilled brick cornice, and a plinth. It is constructed of purple brick with red brick dressings and has two storeys, attics, and cellars. The façade includes five window openings with double-hung sashes that have single vertical glazing bars set in plain reveals, topped with segmental gauged brick arches and dentilled brick aprons. A raised brick band separates the storeys, and the central window on the first storey is adorned with a moulded brick architrave. The entrance features a central six-panel door framed by a Tuscan wood doorcase with fluted pilasters, a pulvinated frieze, and a segmental pediment. The roof is tiled and includes three flat-headed dormers with moulded wood cornices. This building is part of a group of listed buildings in Northgate Street, which includes the Great White Horse Hotel and several others along Great Colman Street and St Margaret's Plain.
