A purpose-built synagogue on the site of a house at 14 Ogle Terrace. The plot had been bought in 1914 but the house was not cleared until 1932. The original architect for the synagogue was Marcus Kenneth Glass of Newcastle. When he died in 1932, J.A. Page & Son took over. The building is of plain red brick with the entrance under a gable at the western end. It closed in 1994 and was converted into the South Tyneside Arts Studio. The foundation stones of the synagogue are just legible. Much of the original decorative glass has been removed except for a sunburst Star of David window in the Ark wall. The Luhot (Tablets of the Law, double-headed stone bearing an abbreviated form of the Ten Commandments) remain on the gable. Inside the iron column supports with palmette capitals survive. Re-located here from Charlotte Street. South Shields Hebrew Congregation was founded before 1875. In 1895 it had 25 seat holders, whilst in 1900 there were 39 seat holders. The synagogue closed before 2000 when there were less than 12 Jewish families using it. The faint outline of the Star of David is still visible on the eastern upper gable end.

Shown on OS second edition map of 1896. Founded on 22 March 1876. A newspaper article described the opening of the synagogue on 22 March 1876. On the ground floor there was a school room and rooms for the caretaker. The synagogue was on the upper floor. Subscriptions were used to help pay for the build - £50 from the late Sir A Rothschild, £100 (the Jewish Chronicle says £20) from Messrs. A.M Rothschild and sons. Sir Moses Montefiore donated £5. Lady Rothschild presented an embroidered silk velvet mantel for the Scripture scrolls. Brethren from both North and South Shields used the synagogue. The building was said to have cost £700 to £800. The site was provided by the Duke of Northumberland in 1873. The previous synagogue was at 57 Church Road which opened in the 1840s. There were 14 seatholders in 1856 and 18 in 1900. The Linskill Street synagogue closed in 1965. Possibly the first synagogue in the north east. Stone walls possibly relating to the synagogue were located in 2010 during an archaeological evaluation.

Preston Cemetery opened in 1856 as Tynemouth Cemetery. The earliest Jewish gravestone is in the north-west section in the first row closest to the wall. The Hebrew text says 'Sarah Isaacs, aged 26, buried 6 July 1856'. The associated synagogue was at 20 Linskill Street, North Shields from 1870. There is a separate modern (1977) Reform cemetery at the other end of Preston Cemetery with an ohel (prayer hall at burial ground, especially a small walk-in memorial to a deceased Hasidic rabbi). The prayer house with tahara room was built in 1988.

Red-brick building by R.G. Pearson of White & Pearson of Newcastle, 1938-9. It was built for the strictly Orthodox community which grew up around the Gateshead Yeshivah (traditional religious seminary for young men) established in 1927-9 by European refugees. The foundation stone is dated 25 Tammuz 5698 (24th July 1938). There is a red and green Star of David roundel by over the Ark (plain timber cabinet), which bears the year of opening in Hebrew letters 5699 (1939). The other windows are clear glazed double-height round-headed windows. Inside, the gallery along the back wall is hidden by a glazed mehitzah (partition between the mens' and womens' section) made of little square lights set in a concrete frame. In front of the Ark is a shtender (lectern facing the Ark occupied by the prayer leader during services) decorated with a painted Shiviti (decorative plaque featuring the opening word from a verse in Psalm 16). The central bimah (reading desk) and benches face forward. It originally had a mikveh (Jewish Ritual Bath) attached which was rebuilt in 1986. The Gateshead Hebrew Congregation's synagogue was previously located at 79 Prest Street, then Corbitt Street. In 1909 it had 30 seats. Ritual Ashkenazi Orthodox, formed 1904. Archaeologically recorded in 2014 in advance of demolition and replacement with a new shul, community rooms and mikvehs.

This Victorian Cemetery (HER 9854) was opened as ‘Byker & Heaton Cemetery’ on April 24th 1890. A plot running north-south parallel with Benton Road was acquired by Jesmond Synagogue in 1915. The plot consists of four long rows of stones and is railed off from the rest of the cemetery. Entrance is through the ohel (prayer hall at burial ground, especially a small walk-in memorial to a deceased Hasidic rabbi) of 1922 on Etherstone Avenue, a white-washed building with slate roof. The first burial was of Etta Jackson on 3 October 1916. An extension and modern bet taharah (mortuary) have been added to the ohel at the rear.

Conversion of a Victorian Terrace (formerly a Diocesan Home for Girls, HER 10686) by Marcus Kenneth Glass in 1924-5. It was almost an entire rebuild. The houses had been left to the Newcastle United Hebrew Congregation. The building is cement rendered and painted cream with bands of red brick. Its façade has two tiers of tall round-headed windows and a doorway at the western end. The synagogue closed in 1969 and reopened as a design studio in 1981. The Luhot (Tablets of the Law, double-headed stone bearing an abbreviated form of the Ten Commandments) outside has been painted out. A large Star of David window over the main entrance remains however. Totally refurbished inside in 1997.
