Phoenix Lodge No.94 was consecrated in 1755. The oldest Lodge in the City of Sunderland, the brethren of the Lodge built the Phoenix Hall in 1785, which is now the oldest masonic hall in the country where such Freemasons have met continually. We boast a diverse cross-section of members from all walks of life, predominantly based locally, but we also have members who regularly travel from other parts of the country to attend our meetings and participate in our ceremonies.
What We Do
We’re proud to be a forward-looking Lodge with a rich and long history. Visitors may expect a high standard of ritual delivered in “Old Working” which may be subtly different from what they have witnessed before.
Why Join Us
We welcome enquiries about membership from qualified persons.
To qualify, you must:
be a man of 18 years or older, and
be of good character, and
believe in a supreme being, although your particular faith does not matter.
Although belief in a supreme being is required to join, we do not discriminate on the grounds of religion, ethnic group, sexuality, economic or social standing. We are neither political in nature nor religious. To join, new members must swear an oath (on the sacred book of their own faith) to uphold the law of our country, at all times.
