Congregation Data

Name:

Norwich Hebrew Congregation

Address:

3 Earlham Road, Norwich NR2 3RA

Initially a pre-fabricated synagogue was erected on the site, in use from 1948. The Communal Hall, with a flat above to house the congregation's minister, was built in 1951 and consecrated by then Chief Rabbi, Dr Israel Brodie. Later plans were prepared and building commenced on a permanent synagogue, which was completed in 1968 and consecrated on 16 October 1969 by the then Chief Rabbi, Dr Immanuel Jacobovitz.(iii)

Previous Synagogue:

Synagogue Street (previously known as St. Faiths Lane), Mountergate, Norwich

The site was purchased for £150 and the foundation stone for this beautiful synagogue, situated in St Faiths Lane on the corner of a small street which was later renamed Synagogue Street, was laid on 26 June 1848 by the congregation's president Joel Fox and the services were conducted by Rev. Simon Caro. The synagogue was consecrated on 6 September 1849 by Chief Rabbi Dr. N. Adler.(iv)

In 1942, the synagogue was tragically destroyed in a German air raid.  Thereafter, services were held temporarily in the Spiritualist Church hall, Chapel Field North, Theatre Street, Norwich, until the congregation move to Earham Road.(v)

Earlier Synagogues:

From 25 July 1828 to 1848, the synagogue was in Tombland Alley (opposite Norwich Cathedral),(viii) the restored seventeenth century building thought to have housed the synagogue, at 2 Tombland Alley, Norwich NR3 1HL,(ix) is a Grade II Listed Building (number 1210840) designated on 5 June 1972. View description on Historic England website.

Previously, the following had been reported as the location of the synagogue:

  • A large room in a house in Ber Street, in the district of St. John De Sepulchre (where the first and oldest cemetery was situated).(x)

  • A room in Gowing's Court, St Stephen’s Street.(xi)

  • In 1746, the synagogue was situated to the southwest of Norwich Castle on an unmarked lane running from Hog Hill to Cheese and Hay Market. This was clearly marked as "The Jews New Synagogue and Schools" on a 1746 map of Norwich by Francis Blomefield.(xii)

Formation:

The dates frequently viewed for the founding of the congregation are 1848 (the building of the St. Faiths Lane synagogue) or 1828 (the opening of the Tombland Abbey synagogue), although organised congregations met in Norwich prior to those dates, as indicated above. Other dates given are 1813 (from which continuous records of the Norwich community appear to date(xv)) and 1823/1842.(xvi)

Status:

Active. The congregation is the last remaining Orthodox-based congregation in East Anglia.

Ritual:

There services were originally all Ashkenazi Orthodox / Traditional

However, from at least 2022 an egalitarian service was held at the synagogue on one Shabbat each month, which has seen a significant increase in attendance.(xvii)

Affiliation:

The congregation is an unaffiliated provincial congregation under the aegis of the Chief Rabbi.

  • (lviii) Initially Jewish Year Books corresponded to the Hebrew year, and thus ran roughly from autumn of one year - the year of publication - until autumn of the next year. From 1909, year books were published according to the Gregorian year, being published generally towards the end of the year prior to the year appearing in the title of the year book. In listings in year books, it had been assumed that a person's term of office commenced in the year of publication of the year book in which he was first listed (although if he had assumed office late in that year he would not have been listed until the subsequent edition). Where there is a descrepancy between the two sources, which was never more than a single year, we have adopted the dates given by Henry Levine. Jewish Year Books were not published during World War II subsequent to 1940.

  • (lx) Barnett Crowcour, born 1785, is considered the father of the congregation and was the founder of the Tombland Alley synagogue. He died on 25 September 1835 and is buried in the Quaker Lane cemetery (section on Norwich in Provincial Jewry in Victorian Britain). Described as a dentist, he was also the first named signatory on the deed acquiring Quaker Lane cemetery in 1813 (section on Norwich in Cecil Roth's The Rise of Provincial Jewry).

  • (lxi) Joel Fox was president who oversaw the opening of the St Faiths Lane synagogue in 1848. According to the section on Norwich in Provincial Jewry in Victorian Britain, he was president in 1853, but this appears to be incorrect as (according to Henry Levine) he was treasurer, or possibly vice president at the time.

  • (lxi) Israel Bloch was referred to as president in 1872 in the section on Norwich in Provincial Jewry in Victorian Britain and was listed as president of the congregation in the Jewish Directory for 1874, edited by Asher I. Myers.
