Freemasonry is a fraternal organisation meeting in groups known as lodges. We are not a secret society but a society with secrets and known worldwide for our charitable works. Written records show Freemasonry in Maldon Essex, active in 1772. Lodges have met at various establishments over the years, such as the Bull Inn, Blue Boar, Kings Head, Saint Peters Church and High Street premises. We now meet at the Maldon Masonic Hall, 3 Cromwell Hill, Maldon, Essex, CM9 7QD. Lodges meet a number of times a year, a ceremony takes place followed by members sitting down together to dine. A member of a lodge, can by invitation or request, visit and attend the meeting of another lodge. The Lodges meeting at Maldon Masonic Centre are:
