Freemasons Hall - a photo on Flickriver

Freemasons Hall

The imposing Freemasons Hall in Great Queen Street is the headquarters of the United Grand Lodge of England. It makes a grand statement in its mixture of classical and Art Deco styles, having been built between 1927-33, the third masonic complex on this site. The architects were H.V.Ashley and F.Winton Newman.

The Hall takes part in London Open House in September to enable the public to see the beautiful interiors here. The members on duty were very welcoming and informative, clearly proud of their traditions and eager to share something of them. The interior design and finish everywhere is of very high quality, with superb decorative flourishes in metalwork and glass.

The stairwells contains good pieces of stained glass, whilst the main hall (the 'Grand Temple') is magnificently decorated with mosaics adorning the ceiling and bronze doors decorated with reliefs, the visual climax of the complex.

The Hall is normally open to members of the Freemasons only, but there are guided tours on most days to enable members of the public to see inside.
