We will be opening the cemetery on Sunday September 5th between 11-3pm when you will be able to visit the graves and listen in situ. This will be part of the Jewish Heritage Days. If you want to book a slot contact Jerry Sibley on 07753 267616 or phccaretaker@yahoo.co.uk

In light of the current pandemic and knowing that the old Jewish cemetery on Plymouth Hoe will not be open for some time we have re edited our Audio Trail so you can listen in one sitting, wherever you are. CLICK HERE to hear it and all our other ripple audios.
