United Kingdom - London - Stamford Hill - Orthodox - Jewish - Torah.

When a new Sefer Torah (five books of Moses) is completed after years of work it is carried in a big community parade to synagogue. Rabbi's and leaders young and old from the Ashkenazi Nitra group take it turns to carry the decorated scrolls to their Shul on Clapton Common, Stamford Hill. Throughout the procession a cloth roof is held over the person carrying the scrolls.
