The Province has recently enjoyed a very successful annual meeting of Provincial Grand Lodge along with a similarly successful and enjoyable Past Rank Promotions’ meeting at Three Counties Lodge both of which were very well attended by Brethren from across the Province.

At the Provincial Grand Lodge meeting, our Provincial Grand Master, RW Bro Max Bayes, was delighted to appoint W Bro Martin Dimmock as Provincial Senior Grand Warden and W Bro David Butt as Provincial Junior Grand Warden and took the opportunity to thank W Bro Neil Sheppard and W Bro Chris Mullen, the outgoing Provincial Senior Grand Warden and Provincial Junior Grand Warden, for their support during a very successful year. The Provincial Grand Master then proceeded to appoint other Brethren receiving acting or first appointments to Provincial Grand Rank. The meeting was honoured with the presence of RW Bro His Honour, Richard Hone, QC, President of the Masonic Charitable Foundation who was invited by the Provincial Grand Master to address the meeting. He delivered and most informative and enlightening address on the work of the MCF.

The Three Counties Past Rank Promotions’ meeting was a great success and many Brethren who are the backbone of both their Lodges and the Province were honoured with Past Provincial Grand Rank promotions. During the course of the meeting, VW Bro James Newman, Deputy President of the Masonic Charitable Foundation was declared Master Elect of the Three Counties Lodge.

Our Provincial Grand Master addressed both meetings and updated Brethren on many matters and wished all a very enjoyable Summer. You can read his address in full by clicking here.
