Imperial Lodge of Mark Master Masons No 1276
 
5th April 2024 - Last meeting at the Masonic Hall, Poulton Le Fylde for Imperial Mark Lodge prior to their move to another venue. The future venue was to be discussed during the evening, with a further item being a Masonic lecture.
The WM, WBro. Andrew Stansfield welcomed everybody and opened the Lodge.
19 Brethren were present including three visitors: WBro. Tony Thackrah PProv.GJW, WBro. Steve Smith PProv.G. Snr. Stwd and WBro. Tony Cross DGSwdB.
A passionate discussion regarding the future meeting venue for the Lodge was held, with a number of options agreed upon for review by the Brethren at a soon to be held committee meeting.
WBro. Clive Gitsham PProvGInspWks, gave a very informative lecture on the tools of a Mark Mason, which was well received.
The Lodge was closed and the Brethren gathered in the bar and dining room for  the last time at the Hall. A nice meal was enjoyed by all present.
A raffle organized by WBro. Chris Sage ProvGStwd, raised £85.
An interesting night was had by all!
