Severn Street Synagogue

The Severn Street property was sold to the Freemasons in 1856 and subsequently used as the Athol Masonic Hall.

[2][3] The first recorded Jewish congregation in Birmingham dates from c. 1780 when a synagogue was established in an area then known as The Froggery.

[3] The synagogue building was completed in 1813, and that year was badly damaged in a riot directed at non-Anglicans that also severely damaged the Methodist Church in Belmont Row, Quaker Meetinghouse near Lady Well, and the Baptist Chapel in Bond Street.

The adjacent banqueting hall, decorated with Stars of David, was added for the Freemasons by architect Henry Naden in 1871–2.
