It had cost £275,000 to build, and on its completion was thought to be the largest and best-equipped centre of its kind in the country. Most of the work was done by volunteers, as many Sikhs gave their services free of charge. Many others gave large donations towards costs. More than 1500 Sikhs and invited guests attended a ceremony to mark the completion of the temple, including local MP Joan Lester.   Place: Slough; Baylis and Stoke ; Woodland Avenue Dimensions: 8.6 x 11.4 cm Subject: Sikh Temples ; Name Subject: Ramgarhia Sikh temple Content Type: Photo Black and White Location: Slough Library Local Ref: I2948 Unique ID: sl-sl-2948_sikhtempleslough-i-00-000.tif IPR: Slough Library       Themes Homepage > Places of Worship > Ramgarhia Sikh Temple, Woodland Avenue, April 1998
