Northgate (Wakefield)

Northgate is a street in the city centre of Wakefield, in West Yorkshire, in England.

The street dates from the Mediaeval period, when it was one of three major roads in the town, heading towards Leeds.

The part of the street near the town became built up with burgage plots, although there were fewer than on Westgate and Kirkgate.

It runs north, past the west end of Wakefield Cathedral, and junctions with Bread Street and Cross Square.

[12] Another notable building is the Talbot & Falcon pub, which has lain on the street since 1700.
