Northgate Street is a street in the City of Gloucester, so named because its northern end was originally the location of the north gate in the city's walls. It dates from at least 1455. The part between the north gate and the outer north gate was known as Lower Northgate. Part of the west end of the street was once known as Cordwainer's Row.[1]

The street runs from the crossroads of Northgate, Eastgate, Southgate, and Westgate Streets in the south (The Cross) to London Road in the north. It is joined by St John's Lane, Hare Lane, and Worcester Street on the north side and The Oxebode, St Aldate Street, and Spread Eagle Road on the south side.
