“Freemasonry in the heart of Southampton”

18th May 2026 – Ceremony of Initiation

Our final meeting of the season last evening was once again a celebration of brotherhood, camaraderie and friendship as we welcomed in our fourth Initiate of 2026; our newly made brother proved a very worthy candidate indeed who we know from his enthusiasm he will bring an extra dimension to our number in the years ahead. We were honoured by a number of visitors from various lodges around the Province and further afield, most notably our very good friends from Netley Abbey Lodge No 6969 with their WM and other brethren joining us for the evening.

As always our festive board was themed to a current topic with this month being that of Mental Health Awareness with the members being pleased to support, as the designated charity for the evening, ANDYS MAN CLUB https://andysmanclub.co.uk/ The generosity of our members and visitors was as always extraordinary with a healthy sum raised for this most worthy charity.

We now enter our summer break period, until we meet again on the square in October, for yet another Initiation ceremony with a candidate keen to join the members on his special journey into freemasonry; until then we shall enjoy some social activities with members, friends and family over the coming months of which our reports will be found on this page.
