We were honoured to welcome the new Deputy Provincial Grand Master for Yorkshire North & East Ridings, accompanied by a team of active Provincial officers, to our recent meeting.

On this special night, they witnessed a First Degree initiation, where we were delighted to welcome our newest member, Bro. Andrew Tunstall, into Freemasonry. A memorable start to his Masonic journey, shared with distinguished company and supportive brethren.

A proud evening for the lodge and a fantastic milestone for Bro. Tunstall.

What might seem to many as a tragic endpoint instead marks....

Why Join the Royal Arch - For the Master Mason, the journey is intentionally incomplete—a tragic cliff-hanger leaving a symbolic void. The Royal Arch provides the essential second half, offering narrative resolution and recovering the genuine lost Word. It is the keystone that completes the allegorical arch, transforming a moral builder into a true spiritual Master and fulfilling the promise of further light.

Gladiolus and the Poppy are this month’s birth flowers. Like the lodges movable and immovable jewels these flowers have meaning, and in th...
