Introduction

On behalf of THE GALLERY LODGE Number 1928 we welcome you to our website.

If you are reading this then you may be someone who is interested in becoming a Freemason or someone that is already a Freemason and looking to join or visit a London Lodge. In either case we would welcome the opportunity of helping you.

This website is designed to give you the basic information you need.

For those thinking about becoming a Freemason you may be surprised that we can tell you just about everything you want to know. The only “secrets” are about some of our rituals because to reveal them would simply spoil the experience of those that have not yet experienced them.

So, if you are interested then please don’t delay in contacting our MEMBERSHIP SECRETARY at the e-mail address on the Contact Page of this website.

Should you already be a Freemason and looking to join or visit a London Lodge then please contact me the LODGE SECRETARY at the e-mail address on the Contact page of this website.

Why join

Freemasonry is about sharing a common desire for charitable support and following a high moral code. It is a male-only society, focused on following the three core principles and improving oneself and others. Our society is open to men of any race, religion, political belief and status.

You can help with research to understand Parkinsons

Researchers at University College London want to understand the proteins that build up in the brains of people with Parkinson’s. This knowledge could help develop more accurate and targeted treatments for people with Parkinson’s in the future. They are looking for both healthy volunteers and people with Parkinson's aged 50 - 80 to take part in their study.

Near Capacity Grand Temple as Over 300 London Brethren Honoured at 2025 London Grand Rank Investiture

On Wednesday 5 November 2025, the Grand Temple was close to bursting at the seams as London came together for the annual London Grand Rank and London Rank Investiture. This year marked the second outing of the new format, and its success was unmistakable: an afternoon session, formally “called off”, allowed hundreds of friends and family to attend and witness their favourite Masons being invested. The galleries of the Grand Temple were filled to the rafters with proud guests - a joyous, supportive atmosphere that has quickly become a defining hallmark of the revised structure.
