Bristol’s first mosque, the Bristol Jamia Mosque in Green Street Totterdown, Bristol on the site of St. Katherine’s church. St. Katherine’s church in Totterdown had been built in 1889 as a mission room of the Holy Nativity Church, Knowle and had been closed since 1961 except for weekly services for elderly people in Totterdown which continued until 1964. A Bristol Muslim Association (whose president was Mr. J. Moghadass of St. George, Bristol) had been established as early as 1968. Members first borrowed the mission hall for occasional functions and that same year purchased the hall from the parish council for £2,500 to use as a mosque.
