Best Answer

* The first Jews were brought to England by William the Conqueror. * They were expelled from England by Edward I in 1290. (No reason is recorded for the expulsion). * They were readmitted by Oliver Cromwell from 1657. The numbers remained small till persecution in Tsarist Russia forced many Jews to flee westwards.

There were Jews in England in the early and central Middle Ages. They likely arrived by way of the Roman conquest of Britannia. However, Jews were exiled from England in 1260 and were only allowed to return in the mid-1600s.
