Ryton St Mary’s lodge which is one of two lodges that meet at Ryton Masonic Hall and was formed in the years following WWII when due to an increase of members of our Mother lodge Ryton Holy Cross Lodge 4231, it was decided that a new Lodge was needed. It was they who sponsored the formation of our own lodge which was consecrated on the 26th of November 1947.
