Our October 2023 meeting saw Matthew’s installation as our new Worshipful Master. Although thinned out by unexpected illnesses, the ceremony went well aided by a number of visitors: some old friends of the Lodge and some new. We were particularly pleased to welcome as visitors Kenneth and Robin, both Old […]
After Nigel’s unfortunate illness in February, we were finally able to Raise him as our newest Master Mason in April. Various members of the Lodge contributed to the ceremony which Nigel greatly appreciated; the rehearsal in February undoubtedly paid dividends. We also elected Matthew as our new Worshipful Master, to […]

Our October 2021 meeting was the first at Freemasons’ Hall in Covent Garden since the onset of the pandemic. It was wonderful to be back – simply to walk through the doors and take in the unique atmosphere of the building, which was originally built in the 1920s as a […]
After 18 months of suspended activity, we were all delighted to finally reconvene in one place. We had intended to initiate Nigel, our newest member, in April 2020 but those plans, like those of so many other people and organisations, fell by the wayside as pandemic restrictions were applied. As […]
