Site last revised 12th June 2011 Site commissioned |
Our next meeting is on the Monday 20th May 2011 |
A warm welcome to the web-site of Legion Lodge of Freemasons. Our aim is to give an insight into how Freemasonry is practised in one lodge by looking at our past, our present and attempting to glimpse into our future. Legion Lodge is No 8634 on the roll of the United Grand Lodge of England (UGLE) and is one of approximately 180 lodges which make up the Province of Northumberland. We have a membership of 21 and we meet in the City of Newcastle upon Tyne. We enjoy our Masonry in Legion Lodge and I hope that this comes across in the pages that follow. |

Conceived in a Lounge Bar Just where was the idea to found Legion Lodge thought of? Surely not in a bar, even if it was the "posh end". They wouldn't, .... would they? They didn't, ..... did they? This just cannot be true of our Worthy Founders or can it? Find out at this page |
All the latest scandal? Perhaps not. See what we are up to month by month in our news section. Or catch up via the digest. |
"Geordies" and "Makems" Find out about our link with Lodge of Loyalty in the Land of the Makems |
Links Page This page details many links to masonic and non-masonic organisations. |
The Consecration was a "Scorcher"
Did we really try to "toast" our visitors on this, our most important day? Find out why the Fire Brigade were involved and what happened to the visitor who went missing. How did the 80 year old PGM manage | Visitor? Or do you want to know more?
Are you a visiting brother who would like to visit one night? Or are you a non-mason who wants to know more, perhaps with a view to joining? Then visit this page. There is a map available to help you find the Masonic Hall. |
Some Interesting Characters Read a fascinating character study of two former members. Also read about the Poppy and how it became linked to Remembrance. |
Hand Bound books Ms D Thompson recently donated a wonderful hand bound book to the lodge. If you are interested in finding out more then contact her on Deirdre Thompson |
