About Adel Lodge

Freemasonry Leeds Lodge History

Freemasonry in Leeds is very popular, including our lodge. It all started when Adel Lodge received its Warrant or Charter on 6 February 1946 after being sponsored by the Headingley Lodge No. 2608, which had a membership of 97. Thereafter Adel Lodge was consecrated on 17 April 1946 at Castle Grove Masonic Hall on 17 April 1946. There were 18 founder members, 13 from Headingley Lodge and five from other Lodges. Nine of the founders were Installed Masters, and nine were Master Masons.

At the Consecration, a donation of 50 guineas was made to charity, and ever since the Lodge has supported different charities in a variety of ways.

The Past Masters and Officers have always maintained the work of the Lodge to a high standard,

The Lodge prides itself in planning a variety of social events throughout the year, to which we welcome the families and friends of its members and also anyone that my be interested in joining our lodge.
