Jewish history. Manchester Council of Christians and Jews invites you to a fascinating heritage trail walk through the old Jewish quarter around Cheetham Hill Road on the afternoon of Sunday 10 September. Two knowledgeable Manchester Jewish Museum guides will take you to, and explain about 20 Jewish heritage landmarks in a compelling journey that begins at the newly extended Manchester Jewish Museum and restored Spanish and Portuguese Synagogue of 1874, on Cheetham Hill Road. The trail will last from 2-3pm and will be in memory of Mr Merton Paul, local historian and guide, who conducted heritage trails for over 30 years. The Trail will begin at Manchester Jewish Museum. You will be welcome to arrive any time from 12 noon to enjoy a visit around Museum and Synagogue first, and there will be a short introductory talk at 1.30pm. Museum entrance for members of the group taking part in the Trail will be £5 per person, payable to the Museum on the day only. To register, e-mail your email address and phone number to: Francesca Frazer-Davies, Manchester CCJ Secretary, at ccjsecretary@yahoo.co.uk. Only 20 spaces available!
