West London Synagogue Office in Seymour Place
Description
View of the front elevation of the West London Synagogue at 33 Seymour Place, Marylebone looking south towards the junction with Upper Berkeley Street. This is the rear of the building, with the main entrance located on Upper Berkley Street. The view of the three-storey facade is dominated by a row of large arched windows on the ground floor. The synagogue and congregation are affiliated to Reform Judaism and the synagogue was established on 15 April 1840. It is one of the oldest synagogues in the United Kingdom and, is the oldest house of prayer affiliated with the Movement for Reform Judaism. On the day the synagogue was established, 24 members of the Mocatta, Goldsmid and other families announced their secession from their respective congregations, the Sephardi Bevis Marks Synagogue, and the Ashkenazi Great Synagogue of London, with an intention to form a prayer group for neither "German nor Portuguese" Jews but for "British Jews", which would allow them to worship together.
