St. Alphege Chapter No. 1431 was consecrated in 1918. It was founded by members of St. Alphege Lodge No. 1431
(sadly no longer meeting). At the time that both the Lodge and Chapter were founded, Masons at Solihull met in
the upper rooms at The George Hotel opposite St. Alphege Parish Church - hence the name, St. Alphege being the
patron saint of Solihull.
The history of St. Alphege Lodge can be found at the Provincial Grand Lodge of Warwickshire Library,
