The synagogue, built in 1932, serves Edinburgh's Orthodox Jewish community which has been traditionally centred on the Newington area of the city. It replaced an earlier building on the opposite side of the street where a 1930s block of flats now stands. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_in_Scotland
