Mosque proposed at 175 Chesterton Road — 26 January 1973
Cambridge Moslems will soon have their own mosque if a scheme to convert a property goes through. The City’s Moslem Association have bought 175 Chesterton Road and hope to use it for their Friday prayer meetings as well as religious festivals and other meetings. A Trustee of the foundation said “We have about 70 members and we hope that it will be a meeting place for all Moslems who are living or staying in Cambridge. If we get permission for it we shall be sending back to our home countries for donations and help from there”
