Red Rose of Lancaster Lodge No. 19 closes

On Wednesday 11th May 2016, the Red Rose of Lancaster Lodge no. 19 held its last meeting. The lodge which was consecrated in 1944 has had a long and honourable history but sadly membership levels had dropped to such an extent that despite a concerted effort from members of other Lodges, the decision was taken to hand in its Warrant.

Grand Master's visit to the Northern Province

Our first meeting was on Tuesday 6th October 2015 when we visited Morecambe & Heysham Lodge 15 for a Passing ceremony. During this meeting the Grand Master Christine Chapman was pleased to award the OSM (Order of Service to Masonry) to RW Bro Brenda Cook, Prov. Deputy GM.

On Wednesday 7th October 2015 we visited Morecambe again for a meeting of the Cornerstone Mark 3 when the ceremony of Advancement was performed.

Both these meetings held their Festive Boards at the Headway Hotel.

We rounded off our trip with a visit to the Installation meeting of Royal Ark Mariners 2 when Bro Diane Bennett was Installed as Worshipful Commander by W Bro Cath Greenwood. This was followed by a delicious meal at Rangemoor, Blackpool provided by the amazing Margaret Tanton.
