Birmingham, 1898
Lying to the northeast of Birmingham, Wolverhampton has had only a minimal Jewish footprint. Although the Jewish community existed since the 1830's, a synagogue was not established until 1858 (on St. James’ Square). Following a fire in 1903, it was rebuilt on Fryer Street, however numbers never grew over the decades. The synagogue finally closed in 1999. The building is now a church.
