The Northgate

On or near the site of the current Northgate, was the Porta Decumana of the Roman fortress, and later the medieval gate which also housed the city gaol. The present arch, designed by the architect Thomas Harrison, was built 1808-10 and presented to the city by Robert, Earl Grosvenor.
