Mosque, Eagle Street, Coventry
The Noorul Islam Jamia Mosque is believed to be the oldest mosque in Coventry. It was registered for public worship in 1960 and opened the following year to serve a mainly Pakistani community, though the existing building may be more recent than this. https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/warks/vol8/pp396-397 Many mosques in Britain began as conversions of houses or other buildings and were in some cases later replaced by purpose-built structures. https://www.architectsjournal.co.uk/archive/a-history-of-mosques-in-britain

Noorul Islam Jamia Mosque, Coventry
Another, better, photo of the Noorul Islam Jamia Mosque, the oldest purpose-built mosque in Coventry (see Image]). It was registered for public worship in 1960 and opened the following year, serving a mainly Pakistani community. It is marked on the map with a cross by the Ordnance Survey, which largely ignored non-Christian religious sites for many years, but now uses the former church symbols with their crosses for all places of worship. Is this an advance?
