Highlights

Have you ever wondered about Freemasonry, what it’s all about and what goes on, as well as what it looks like inside a Masonic Lodge - now you can find out.


Freemasons have been operating in West Lancashire since as long ago as the 1640’s when the earliest account of admittance into Freemasonry is recorded into a lodge in Warrington. It is an intriguing thought that whilst Roundheads and Cavaliers were engaged in the bitter English Civil War, Freemasons were meeting in peace and harmony in this very Province.


In 1857 Freemasons in Liverpool purchased a house on Hope Street known as the House in the Garden and began converting the property for the purpose of Freemasonry.


Eventually, in 1872 plans were submitted to demolish the house and replace it with a Masonic Hall. The Cornerstone was laid with full Masonic honours and the building was finished in 1874 by which time Freemasonry had become so popular that an immediate decision was made to extend the building.

Itinerary

  • Liverpool Masonic Hall Building

    2 hoursAdmission Ticket Included
    It is incredible to think that medieval Freemasons could have been in Liverpool and worked on the construction of Liverpool Castle as early as 1238. Freemasonry has maintained strong links with stone masons. Members who, more recently, worked on Liverpool Cathedral would more than likely have attended Lodge meetings at Hope Street Masonic Hall. If you have taken part in our St James Cemetery tour, you will have seen the number of graves belonging to Freemasons who lived in Liverpool at that time and perhaps attended lodge meetings at this Masonic Hall. This tour adds to the social history of Liverpool and complements our Georgian Liverpool Tour. It also provides the opportunity to see the inside of a number of Masonic Lodge Rooms that are still in actual use, including the Roman Room and Egyptian Room - as well as seeing the working tools of Freemasonry. You will also be able to find out more about Freemasonry, what it stands for and have your questions answered by your guide.
