I take much pleasure in welcoming you, be you Mason or not and hope that you will find this Masonic web site both useful and informative.
Our Lodge is one of a group of Lodges that meet at The Centre Point, Five Heads Road, Horndean.
We pride ourselves on our work, both during our time in the Lodge room and in the aid of charity – the latter being one of the main precepts of Freemasonry.
Freemasonry is a fully inclusive fraternity with members from all backgrounds and walks of life, with an age range spanning many decades. It is the ultimate leveller, a society where friendship and goodwill are paramount.
Ever Onward, Ever Upward
