Greenbank Drive Synagogue, Art Deco synagogue in Sefton Park, England

The building features brown hand-cut bricks, concrete ceiling construction, and architectural elements influenced by Swedish National Romantic and Art Deco styles.

The synagogue, constructed between 1936 and 1937 by architect Sir Ernest Alfred Shennan, emerged from the merger of two congregations dating back to 1838.

The synagogue represents the growth of Liverpool's Jewish community, with the congregation moving from Hanover Street to Pilgrim Street before settling in Sefton Park.

Following its closure in 2008, the Grade II* listed building received approval in 2017 for conversion into 22 residential apartments while preserving original features.

The C20 Society recognizes this structure as the finest example of an interwar period synagogue remaining in Europe.
