GRO ref: Northmore, William q3 1936 aged 66 Lambeth RD 1d 188
His age, if accurate, implies he was born in 1869 or 1870.
Looking at all William Northmores (with or without any middle name) with a birth registered in England or Wales 1868-1872 this William Henry Northmore is the only one whose death is not clear - making it seem likely to be his death.
It is, though, possible that the age is in accurate or that this is a William who was born elsewhere, or who had William as a middle name at birth or whose birth entry or the index or transcription has an error, meaning it does not show up in the William I found. (There was a William Henry Northmore b 1877 in Plymouth but who later lived in Lambeth. However, there was also a death of a William Henry Northmore in Camberwell RD in 1931, aged 54 so that would appear to be that WHN's death, and so he cannot be the one who died in 1936).
But in addition there is no other death registration in England or Wales for a William Northmore with an age giving a birth date 1868-1872 who I cannot match with a different William Northmore.
Taking these two facts together does suggest to me this was probably the death of this William.
There is no probate calendar entry to give extra information; probably only buying his death certificate would clarify whether or not it was this William (and even that may not).
