About Us

Lime-stone Rock Masonic Lodge was established in 1822 by Henry Roberts, a designer and portrait artist whose self-portrait still hangs in the lodge today. The Freemasons Lodge first met in the Grammar School in Saint Mary’s Church yard which is now situated in York Street. The Freemasons Lodge in those days consisted of local trades people and is still made up of similar individuals to this day. The lodge meets in the Masonic Rooms above the Conservative Club in Clitheroe on the second Thursday of the months of February, March, April, May, September, October, November, and December.

Reviews

The Masonic Lodge is a hidden gem, steeped in history and surrounded by natural beauty.

The Masonic Lodge offers a unique and memorable experience, preserving the traditions of the past.

A visit to the Masonic Lodge is like stepping back in time, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

The Masonic Lodge is a true testament to the craftsmanship and dedication of its members.

We had a very enjoyable social event at Holmes Mill Beer Hall and afterwards at Jun Yue for a very pleasant Chinese meal. Over the summer months we enjoy a number of social gatherings but when September starts so does the Masonic meeting season and our next Lodge meeting is coming up fast. We always meet on the second Thursday so in 2025 that means the 11th of September, Masonic guests always welcome, if you're interested please contact the secretary below.

If you're a Freemason and want to visit, please use the contact form below to get straight through to the Secretary Nick Baldwin.
Likewise if you're not a Freemason and want to know more about joining us then please contact us below.

As part of our ongoing support of local communities, the East Lancashire Masonic Charity has donated a life saving defibrillator to Clitheroe. Shaun Ormerod from Limestone Rock and Graham Robinson from Keep are pictured with Mayor Coun Donna O'Rourke and Coun Simon O'Rourke.
