Freemason's Hall
60 Great Queen Street,
London, WC2B 5AZ
Since May 1942, Mandate Lodge has held its meetings at Freemasons’ Hall, one of the finest Art Deco buildings in England. It was built between 1927–1932 as a memorial to the Freemasons who died in the First World War and is now Grade II* listed internally and externally. In addition to the Grand Temple (seating 1700) there are 21 Lodge Rooms, a Library and Museum, Board and Committee Rooms and administrative offices. The building is fully open to the public and well worth visiting.
The building is the headquarters of the United Grand Lodge of England and the principal meeting place for Masonic Lodges in London. Grand Lodge has been in Great Queen Street since 1775 and this is the third building on the site. To read about the history of Freemason's Hall Click here
