Who are we?
The Rowlandson Lodge is a friendly Lodge, with approx. 40 members of varying ages. We are the oldest Lodge within Ferryhill and have been meeting at RFH since 1909 and have strong links to the local community. Our ceremonies are quite different from most of those within the Province of Durham and we have a different working ritual to most Lodges in the Province, our Installation of the new Master each year is special to all who attend.
What we do
We are proud of our Lodge and the members of the Lodge are always looking to assist our local community in any way we can, whether it be charitable donations or local volunteering within the community.
