Europe's largest Gurdwara in the UK has featured in a new list of most important faith buildings in England, according to a media report.
The Guru Nanak Gurdwara, in Smethwick, features alongside iconic locations such as Stonehenge and Canterbury Cathedral, Birmingham Mail reported.
The Gurdwara has been chosen alongside nine other places of faith to feature in 'A History of England in 100 Places' which is being run by campaign body Historic England, the report said.
The Gurdwara, which was was built in the 1990s, housed one of the largest congregations in the UK and was the biggest in Europe, a citation by Historic England said.
"It continues to expand with Smethwick's growing Sikh population," the citation added.
"Community is at the heart of the Sikh faith and Gurdwaras are a focal point for communities to come together and get closer to God."
"This particular Gurdwara shows the geographical spread of different faiths in our country and represents how different communities and cultures come together to enrich British society."
