In 2007 the Greenbank Drive congregation amalgamated with another synagogue in Liverpool.
In March 2013 Liverpool City Council announced that it will pump £70,000 into refurbishing the Greenbank Synagogue in South Liverpool.
The Grade II listed building, on Greenbank Drive, has been on the ‘at risk’ register since 2010.
But it is hoped the repairs will secure its long-term future and help find a new use for it.
It was built in 1936 and was used by the congregation until they left it in 2007. A plan to turn it into flats hatched in 2008 came to nothing and it has been idle since.
Address: Greenbank Drive, Liverpool, L17 1AN
hello my name is kevin lees and my son it presently studying photography at st helens university.
my son and myself are looking for unused buildings to photography and would like to ask how we could get access to the inside of this amazing building.
the present project title for him to undertake is abandoned liverpool and this is an ideal subject for him to be able to portray for the project title.
we would if possiable like to have enough time to photograph various items of intrest, the structure of the synagogue from a religous side as well as an architecture view.
1-2 hrs if this is practical.
we are not people who break and enter and wish to respect the property and the owners intrests too.
thanks in advance
