The structure was completed and dedicated in September 1701 . The interior decor and furnishing and layout of the synagogue reflect the influence of the great Portuguese Synagogue of Amsterdam of 1675 . The roof was destroyed by fire in 1738 and repaired in 1749 . During the London Blitz the synagogue 's silver , records and fittings were removed to a place of safety ; the synagogue suffered only minor damage . The synagogue suffered some collateral damage from the IRA in 1992 and the 1993 Bishopsgate bombing , but this was restored . The essential original structure of the building thus remains today
