The Old Priory Lodge

Welcome to The Old Priory Lodge

Chilwell, Nottingham

We are part of a unique members organisation – The Freemasons.
Having thrived for over 300 years and having no political or religious affiliations, we comprise members of all ages, religions, cultures and backgrounds.

Take the first step on an incredible journey of self discovery.

For Freemasons, there are four important values that help define their path through life:

Integrity, Friendship, Respect, and Service.

In today’s world filled with uncertainty, these principles ring as true now as they have at any point in the organisation’s history.

Building a caring society with Integrity

Rather than working on buildings like the stonemasons of old, today’s Freemasons focus on building themselves as people of integrity and membership provides the structure to help achieve that.

Common Foundation for Friendship

One of the oldest social organisations in the world, Freemasonry is not defined by ideology. It is open to people from all religions and political persuasions and provides the common foundation for friendships between members, many of which will last for life.

Treat others with Respect

With membership in excess of 200,000 people drawn from communities across the UK, Freemasonry brings people together irrespective of their race, religion or any other perceived differences that can divide us as a society.

Create an impact through dedicated Service

Whether participating in events, fundraising for charitable causes or volunteering for public or community organisations, service is at the very heart of Freemasonry. Our members make valuable contributions by donating time, resources and skills.

Membership

Membership is open to men over the age of 18 years (there are 2 Grand Lodges for women). The organisation’s aim is to empower members to be the best they can be – it is about building character, supporting members as individuals and helping them make a positive contribution to society.

Freemasonry provides a structure for members to come together under these common goals, enabling people to make new friendships, develop themselves, and make valuable contributions to charitable causes. We are one of the largest contributors to charitable causes in the country, with almost £1 million donated per week.
