The Province of Guernsey and Alderney in the Channel Islands is one of the smallest Provinces of the United Grand Lodge of England, supporting just eleven Lodges.
Freemasonry came to Guernsey, the second largest Island in the Channel Islands, in 1753 in the reign of King George II. The Grand Master of the Ancient & Honourable Society of Free and Accepted Masons was John Proby Baron of Carysfort in the County of Wicklow, Ireland, and Freemasonry was spreading fast across the length and breadth of the land.
May 10th 1753 witnessed the birth of the first Lodge in Guernsey, the Lily Tavern Lodge No. 228 in St. Peter Port by the Moderns Grand Lodge.

Brethren,
The Annual Communication of Provincial Grand Lodge is almost upon us. It is a very important meeting in the Provinces’ calendar and is open to all Master Masons and above. Do come along and support brethren from your Lodge who are receiving Provincial honours and promotions as well as newly raised Master Masons from your lodge who will be presented to the Provincial Grand Master.
The date is Friday18th October and I would encourage those Brethren who have not sent in their attendance forms to do so without delay as places are limited. You will have received the summons and attendance slip from you Lodge Secretary.
I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible on the night.
Sincerely & fraternally
W. Bro Mark Lainé PAGDC
Provincial Grand Secretary

In 1998 we moved into our purpose-built Masonic Centre in St Martin’s.
We are very proud of this magnificent building, a building much admired by visiting brethren.
For whatever reason you are visiting this website, we do hope that you will find it both interesting and informative.
