Hedworth Lodge No 2418 freemasons lodge was consecrated on 17th December 1891, we have a rich tradition of maintaining masonic principles, friendship, integrity, charity and helping the local community.
We are a progressive, forward thinking and dynamic lodge, currently based in South Shields Masonic Hall, nestled in-between Morrisons supermarket and Brigham & Cowans social club. We are an emulation lodge that meet along with other lodges based in the same hall.
What We Do
As Freemasons, we meet at regular intervals, as well as visiting other lodges, either in the same building, or in another town. Our meetings are centred around a Tyled meeting in the temple, the serious stuff, and a festive board, the fun stuff. Regular Masonic business is conducted in the temple, ceremonies, confirmation of minutes etc, then afterwards the brethren retire to enjoy each others company, with a meal and maybe a drink or two.
Our focus is raising funds for various charitable organisations, many, not all, are masonic in nature.
Why Join Us
Hedworth Lodge No 2418 is a well-structured lodge, which enables us to guide or mentor newer members, with dedicated lodge membership officers and mentors and co-ordinators, who newer members can contact if they are in need of assistance.
We have many members from all walks of life, and enjoy the diversity of freemasonry.
