I would be keen to see the buildings retained and upgraded for their congregations and followers. Being a Scottish Catholic, I am apart from the Jewish tradition, but I remember that when I moved to a top floor flat at 88 Norham Street Shawlands in 1981 ,Emmanuel Shinwell’s sister lived on the ground floor. She was in advanced old age, probably born in the late 19th century, and was there for only a few years, but her presence provided a living link to the past and her brother’s political prominence in the labour struggles of the 20s and 30s.
