Historical Background of The Lodge of Honor & Generosity No. L165
The Lodge was constituted in 1767 and is proud to be a Hall Stone Lodge. It was one of the first Lodges to become a member of the expanded Universities Scheme from 2008. The Lodge is an eclectic mix of recent graduates from a wide variety of universities from the UK and abroad, professionals, and the recently retired. We have no particular ‘leaning', although we have plenty of fencers, quite a few practising scientists, and a few officers from the HM Armed Forces, as well as members who are not British citizens. Lots of our members work overseas, but we keep in touch with everyone, not least through our lively WhatsApp group and the hard work of our Almoner. We are active in the Metropolitan Grand Lodge and get all members involved in our ceremonies right from the start. We are a smart Lodge with excellent rituals and dinners but also nicely informal.
