Masonic links with the County and the fraternal order can be traced back to 1646 when the Lichfield born antiquarian Elias Ashmole recorded attending his first Lodge meeting. Today there are 96 lodges and more than 2,400 members in our Province; the oldest Lodge being founded more than 200 years ago.
In addition to providing information about what we do and where and when we meet, we have tried to be open and to dispel some of the myths and folklore which surround Freemasonry. The abiding principles of the order are friendship, charity and honesty and all members endeavour to live by these principles. We raise money for local, national and international charities, exclusively from within our membership.
