A little over a year after the formation of Mark Grand Lodge in 1856, the Province of Surrey was established in 1857 with two Lodges, Hiram No.13 and Joppa No.17, under the leadership of R.W. Bro. George Beauchamp Cole, its first Provincial Grand Master. This proved to be unsuccessful, both Lodges having failed to meet regularly. Hiram was later revived and is our oldest Lodge but Joppa was erased from the roll.

There are now 43 Mark Master Masons Lodges situated throughout Surrey, presided over by our current Provincial Grand Master R.W. Bro. Raymond Hussey (photo left) ably assisted by his Deputy V.W. Bro. Michael Barnes and his two Assistant Provincial Grand Masters, W. Bro. David Blackburn and W. Bro. David Willmott.

We hope you will take a little time to peruse this website and that you will find something of interest whether you are an existing Mark Master Mason or contemplating joining and becoming a member of this very rewarding and friendly Degree in Masonry.
