Rathcreedan Lodge No 8690:
A regular Freemasons Lodge
based in Banbury, Oxfordshire.

Freemasonry means different things to each of those who join. For some, it’s about making new friends and acquaintances. For others it’s about being able to help deserving causes – making a contribution to family and society. But for most, it is an enjoyable hobby.

Becoming a Freemason

If you’re thinking of becoming a Freemason, The United Grand Lodge of England (which administers Lodges of Freemasons in England and Wales) has published an introductory booklet available here. Please also take a look at our FAQ’s which we hope you’ll find informative.

“Masonry consists of a body of men brought together for the sake of mutual intellectual, social and moral improvement”

Freemasonry is one of the world’s oldest and largest non-religious, non-political, fraternal and charitable organisation. It teaches self-knowledge through participation in a progression of ceremonies.
