About the Lodge
Pinner Lodge is a Masonic Lodge founded for the benefit of commercial travellers in 1908 which has met from October to April every year since then on a Saturday.
What was Freemasonry about in 1908? The same as it is today.
The Masonic philosophy is that we try to be good citizens by practicing the highest moral and social standards in friendship, charity and integrity.
Our meeting take place at Goldsmith Street, Nottingham on the third Saturday in the month at 5.00pm apart from the February installation which starts at 4.00pm.
The Lodge being formed for commercial travellers, we now today have a diverse membership from all quarters of life, Doctors, engineers, accountants, civil servants and many others.
This mix gives a varied, diverse, contrasting environment to enjoy ritual in the temple and at the festive board.
Lodge History
Consecrated in 1908.
In 1907 Freemasonry was enjoying a period of immense popularity. New Lodges were formed all over the country and in Nottingham two recently formed were Welbeck Lodge No. 2890 and Thoresby Lodge No. 3106.
The Welbeck Lodge had a number of members that were Commercial Travellers who obviously mixed with other travellers, many of which were Freemasons. Having to work out of town for most of the week, they all found it difficult to attend weekday Lodges. It was these that had the idea to form a Lodge that could meet on a Saturday.
The Founders were made up of ten Commercial Travellers and two Agents of the twelve, two were members of Welbeck Lodge
It is believed that the Lodge name was chosen due to the link with the Commercial Traveller’s School at Pinner.
