Providing spiritual inspiration, fellowship, and moral guidance to Master Masons in the heart of South West Lancashire since 1864.
“I am extremely proud to have been chosen to lead the District of South West Lancashire. Over the many years that I have been a member of this Order, I have found that it is one of the most inspirational and satisfying fellowships that a Freemason can experience.”

Deriving from the Rite of Perfection in 1762, the Order was formalised in 1786. The Supreme Council 33° for England and Wales was established in 1845.
The Rite comprises 33 degrees. The “Rose Croix” is the 18th degree, where the work of the Chapter is conducted in a quiet and dignified manner.
The District of South West Lancashire maintains 19 Chapters across a region spanning Liverpool and the major industrial towns of the region.
