Can anyone advise what type of plug is required to connect the GPS antenna cable to a Northstar 5505 Chartplotter please?

This is a photograph of the plotter in question. Is anyone able to identify the type of plug which would fit the antenna socket please?

Lots of very inexpensive GPS antennas are available with SMA connectors.

At that price you can carry a spare. My plotter uses a similar one and works perfectly inside a GRP hull.
