For 40 years after the Second World War, Freemasonry was overprotective of its privacy. There was also a policy of not talking to the media or correcting any factual errors which appeared there. As a result, many people developed strange perceptions of what Freemasonry is and what Freemasons do. Since 1984, Freemasonry in England has returned to being open in order to dispel the many myths that have grown over the years. These days, Freemasons are encourage to talk about Freemasonry to their families, friends and colleagues.
Spokesman are available and have been interviewed many times on television, radio and in the press.
Anyone can come and look round Freemasons' Hall in London and many other Masonic meeting places around the country have public open days. We are an old, established Masonic Lodge which was consecrated in 1908 as a traveling salesman's Lodge which meets on a Saturday, when members meet for fraternal friendship. That is not the case today and in fact very few salesmen are members of Pinner Lodge but whose Brethren stem from all walks of life. We are actively seeking new members whose interests may lie within the Masonic fraternity, and all enquiries are welcome. Please contact the Webmaster for further information.
