Our Lodge

Radcliffe with Hemlock Stone is one of the most progressive and friendly Freemasons’ Lodges in the Province of Nottinghamshire. We welcome masonic visitors and new members who share our values.
We meet seven times a year at West Bridgford Masonic Hall at 6pm on the 3rd Friday of the month between October and April and on other Fridays for rehearsals and socialising.
West Bridgford is a purpose-built Masonic Hall on the banks of the River Trent. There is good and easy access and free parking.
We enjoy working together to perform our ceremonies to the best of our ability, which makes for very special evenings. After each meeting there is a formal dinner enabling members to socialise. During the year special themed dinners such as Christmas, Burns’ Night and St. George’s Night are very enjoyable and we welcome many visitors from other Lodges.
We see Freemasonry as a force for good and we seek to be actively involved in our community. We make grants to local charities as well as supporting our masonic charities.
Through its Almoner, the Lodge cares for the welfare of its members and their families and encourages communication through its Facebook page, a WhatsApp group and a regular newsletter.
Our mentoring program guides our brethren on their journey through Freemasonry. Our Lodge of Instruction provides an informal setting to improve masonic knowledge.
We enjoy a full social calendar and welcome friends and family to take part in what is rapidly becoming our unofficial motto – ‘Fun, Friendship and Fellowship’.

 

Lodge History

Radcliffe with Hemlock Stone Lodge was created in 2019 by the amalgamation of two Nottinghamshire lodges with a proud heritage stretching back over 100 years. Radcliffe Lodge was established in 1931 by freemasons living in the Radcliffe on Trent area. Hemlock Stone Lodge was one of the few masonic lodges founded in the First World War and welcomed its members from the neighbourhood of Stapleford and Wollaton.
The two lodge banners symbolise this local background showing the red cliffs of Radcliffe on Trent and the prehistoric sandstone pillar of the Hemlock Stone.
It is now one of the largest and most progressive masonic lodges in Nottinghamshire.
