Welcome to
|
A warm welcome from the Master Malcolm Hayden (Seated)
with Immediate Past Master Alec James (Standing). |
Having so much history and tradition makes us a unique lodge in more ways than one. We have our own ritual which means that the ceremonies we perform here you will not see anywhere else.
We are also the only lodge in Somerset to have an affiliated lodge; Kempsville Lodge No.196 in Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA with whom we share many joint ventures and trans-Atlantic fraternal visits.
You could say that we are truly a lodge with a foot in the past but an eye on the future.
If you would like to know more about our lodge, what we do or Freemasonry in general, then please do not hesitate to get in touch with us through our 'Contact Us' page. We look forward to hearing from you.

MASTER OF THE LODGE
W. Bro. Malcolm Hayden PPrGSuptWks (Devon) There is no greater honour for a Freemason than when he becomes installed into the "Chair" as the Lodge's Master. The Master oversees everyone and everything in the Lodge and most Brethren feel both pleased and anxious in taking on this important role.
The Master has various tasks and duties to perform, not least ensuring that all the Officers in the Lodge are carrying out their duties efficiently, but he is assisted in doing this with various subordinates such as the Wardens and Deacons. W. Bro. Malcom Hayden was installed as Master of the Lodge of Unanimity and Sincerity in January 2023 and has already been Master in his Mother Lodge, the Lodge of Sincerity (No.189) in Plymouth.

LODGE SECRETARY
W. Bro. Chris Partridge PPrSGD The role of Secretary is one of the most important in the Lodge. The Lodge Secretary handles all the Lodge's administration and keeps a record of the Lodge proceedings. He is responsible for issuing the summons for each meeting and making returns to both the Grand and Provincial Grand Lodges.
We are fortunate to have W. Bro. Chris Partridge in this key role as Chris has been involved with both Freemasonry and the Lodge of Unanimity and Sincerity for nearly 20 years and hence there's little he doesn't know about what's going on either within the Lodge or indeed the Province of Somerset.
