Middle Street Synagogue, Brighton
The synagogue was consecrated in 1875 and replaced the 1825 building which has now been converted to apartments. The architect was Thomas Lainson. Although the interior was originally quite plain, with some amber glass above the Ark, benefactors including the Sassoon and Rothschild families paid for the abstract stained glass that we see today. The capitals of the pillars are decorated with Biblical plants and fruits in metalwork, the interior thoroughly deserves its Grade 2 listing and is officially described as "an extremely sumptuous example of late 19th century craftmanship". It is open to the general public on a number of Sunday afternoons each year and can be visited by groups or schools by prior arrangement. further details may be found here:http://www.bhhc-shul.org/middlestreet/index.html
