Friars’ Lodge

1349

Introduction

The Friars’ Lodge was consecrated on 19 April 1871 at a meeting held at the Cheshire Cheese Tavern in Crutched Friars in the City of London, from which it derives its name. The design of the website banner is intended to reflect our origins. The Lodge has remained a London Lodge and continues to thrive. Although the Cheshire Cheese Tavern still exists, we have not met there for many years and now meet at Freemasons’ Hall in Covent Garden.

Why join

Freemasonry is about sharing a common desire for charitable support and following a high moral code. It is based on 3 core principles, good neighbourliness, charitable giving and high moral standards. Those wishing to join should have a belief in a Supreme Being, over 18, law-abiding and interested in being a member of a society that fosters comradeship. Our society is open to men of any race, religion, political belief and status.

How to join

One of the most common misconceptions about Freemasonry – and there are many of them – is that you have to be invited to join. There is absolutely no reason why you should not ask to join – in fact that is the correct procedure.
