Greenbank Drive Synagogue, officially the Liverpool New Hebrew Congregation, is a former Orthodox Jewish congregation and synagogue that was located on Greenbank Drive, in the Sefton Park area of Liverpool, England, in the United Kingdom.
[citation needed] Pretext for the foundation of the synagogue can be traced back to a split within the Liverpool Hebrew Congregation in 1838.
One such area was around Sefton Park, where Hebrew schools and a substantial Jewish congregation started to take shape.
By 1928, the Hope Place Congregation made plans to relocate and build a larger synagogue to accommodate the growing community in Sefton Park.
[2] In May 1959, a fire was started by a burglar which destroyed the Torah ark and its scrolls and damaged part of the roof's structure.
