Description

59 Northgate Street is an 18th-century building that stands three storeys tall. The structure features a brick upper section with a painted rusticated stone ground floor, which includes a projecting plinth. Above the ground floor windows, there is a painted band, and the upper part of the building is flanked by angle stone piers. A moulded and dentilled wood cornice runs along the top, which is broken forward over the angle piers, and the roof is hipped with pantiles covered in lead. The upper floors have five windows, each set in moulded stone surrounds with moulded stone cills. The outer windows on the first and second floors, as well as the central second-floor window, are false. On the ground floor, there is a 19th-century shop with glazed doors on the left side and two windows on the right side that do not have glazing bars. Nos 58 to 60 Northgate Street form a group with No 18 Market Place.
