- Administrative/biographical history:
- Bayswater Synagogue, at the west corner of Chichester Place and Harrow Road, was consecrated in 1863. In 1870 Bayswater joined the Great, New, Hambro, and Central synagogues to form the United Synagogue. The building was designed in red brick in the Gothic style. Although numbers had fallen by the time that the site was taken for the Harrow Road flyover, litigation compelled the United Synagogue to promise to rebuild on land provided by the Greater London Council. From 1965 services were held in the hall of the Lauderdale Road synagogue until a new building was constructed in 1971-2 in Kilburn Park Road. From: 'Paddington: Judaism', *A History of the County of Middlesex: Volume 9: Hampstead, Paddington* (1989), pp. 264-265 (available online).
