Heugh Lodge No 7773 (Consecrated 1961) is the youngest Lodge in Hartlepool. We have established a reputation for friendliness and innovation in our meetings, as well as contributing actively to the social life centred on the building.
We have a proud record of supporting both Masonic and local charities and received a Platinum award for our above target contribution to the last 5 year Durham Festival which raised funds for central national Masonic charities.
Our membership covers a wide range of occupations (including some ex-uniformed servicemen) and member’s ages range from 28 to 90.
What We Do
As part of our calendar we run 3 themed evenings every year on Lodge nights which are very popular with other Lodges. In December we invite our ladies and
widows to join us for a traditional Christmas dinner with Carol singing afterwards. January sees our traditional Burns Night when we decorate the dining room with
tartan banners and pipe in the haggis before Burns ritual address to it is given. In June we have a nautical theme night when the dining room is again appropriately decorated and we all join in for a session of sea shanties after a nautical themed festive board. Our special raffle on these evenings raises money for the RNLI.
We also produce a popular monthly newsletter reporting on activity in Heugh and the other 8 (10 until recently) Hartlepool Lodges. It is always copiously illustrated with photographs. Back copies in the several volumes of our ‘Bar Browser’ are always available for inspection give a potted history of Hartlepool Masonry since 2006.
Why Join Us
We are a traditional Masonic Lodge striving to make good men better. We believe in delivering sincere ritual while at the same time are committed to making
Freemasonry fun and interesting as well as supporting local as well as Masonic charities. Members and visitors are always made welcome. Potential new
members are also always welcome to dine at our themed evenings to have a preview of our festivities before making any commitment. New members will receive support and guidance from our Lodge Mentor; our members regularily visit other Lodges and the new member will be invited to accompany us on these occasions.
