Photographs of the synagogue on Cathedral Road, Cardiff, taken prior to its closure in 1989
Disgrifiadau
These photographs show an extension at the back of the synagogue. Some of them show the room dressed for the harvest festival of Sukkot, for which the roof could be opened to be open to the stars.
PK: Behind the main synagogue was a smaller area called the Beth Hamedrish, and that is where the daily services were held. That was built a little bit later on, and the sukkot was there as well the sliding roof, and on sukkot Harvest Festival, that room would be open.
