A comprehensive web site that is an initiative of the Spiro Ark http://www.spiroark.org/.

The site has links to Jewish heritage trails in nearly 20 localities, with more planned: London, Bath, Bradford, Brackley, Bright & Hove, Canterbury, Cheltenham, Bury St. Edmunds, Dover, Guildford, Hull, Leeds, Lincoln, Northampton, Oxford, Ramsgate, Sheerness & Blue Town, Stroud,
