Machzike Hadath is a vetran chareidi Ashkenazic congregation established in London in 1891. Due to an influx of Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe, there was a need to build a larger building for the congregation. The new synagogue in the East End of London was purchased in 1898. It served the community until 1970, when the congregation moved to Golders Green. The congregation was led by noted Rabbis, including Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak HaKohen Kook and Rabbi Yechezkel Abramsky.
Moderate condition, worn corners and edges, stains.
