2019: A visit to the Masonic Hall, Cardiff.
Built in 1863 as a Methodist Church, the premises were originally, jointly bought by three Masonic Lodges in 1893 and after further fundraising and refurbishment, opened to Freemasonry in 1895. Gradually, from 1918, adjoining cottages were acquired resulting in the complex we see today, that is fully used by many Lodges. Beautiful, original features such as the sweeping staircase and rotunda have been retained, augmented by high quality wood panelling and decoration throughout, with masonic regalia and memorabilia adorning walls and cabinets.
