What happens on the evening
A Lodge evening has two parts. First comes the meeting itself, in which the Lodge deals with its business and, on most evenings, carries out one of the ceremonies of Freemasonry. Afterwards we sit down together for dinner — relaxed, sociable, and where most of the friendship happens. Guests and visiting Freemasons are warmly welcomed at both.
Members wear a dark suit with a plain white shirt and black tie. If you are visiting us for the first time and are not sure about anything at all, please just ask on the Contact page and we will happily explain.
