General notes

"The establishment of the Jewish community in St Anne's commenced in the early part of the last century. The first services were held in the home of Joseph Hamwee on Clifton Drive North, now the Manhattan Hotel. The present synagogue, in Orchard Road, was opened in June 1964, and consecrated by Dr Israel Brodie, the Chief Rabbi for Great Britain and the Commonwealth. The architect was A Maxwell-Caplin."

From "St Anne's on the Sea: a History" (2008) by Peter Shakeshaft (p.267)
