The Northgate Hotel was situated on Northgate (now John Street). It has been demolished to make way for The Oastler Centre (formerly the John Street Centre). Northgate was a very old route north out of Bradford. Part of Northgate has been renamed James Gate, part of it John Street but a small pedestrianised fragment of Northgate still exists.

My mother worked behind the bar in the late 1950s / early 1960s with a blonde lady called Dorothy.At the time Bradford City used to put up their new signings at the Northgate and a certain John McCole took a liking to Dorothy-he ended up being one of City’s all time top scorers.
