Home - Lodge of Stability 217

Introduction

Stability 217 was founded in 1797 and has a lot of history. We have a very good mix and diversity of members with a very strong brotherhood. This ranges from those in their senior years who have a wealth of experience, to many younger members in their twenties and everybody in between. In fact after special dispensation we initiated the 18 year old son of one our members to join our lodge in April 2019. We work hard on our ritual to ensure we uphold the ancient Stability workings and deliver very well practiced meetings. But equally we all enjoy our masonry, the camaraderie between us and have fun at the festive boards after our meetings and at the social events we organise. We have a breakfast club who meet monthly as part of our Lodge of Instructions where we practice for upcoming meetings. We aim to improve our communities and support many masonic and non-masonic charities.

Why join

People join masonry for many different reasons, but why join Stability 217? We are a very friendly and welcoming lodge, and new members realise very quickly there is a strong bond of friendship and camaraderie that develops between members.

Near Capacity Grand Temple as Over 300 London Brethren Honoured at 2025 London Grand Rank Investiture

On Wednesday 5 November 2025, the Grand Temple was close to bursting at the seams as London came together for the annual London Grand Rank and London Rank Investiture. This year marked the second outing of the new format, and its success was unmistakable: an afternoon session, formally “called off”, allowed hundreds of friends and family to attend and witness their favourite Masons being invested. The galleries of the Grand Temple were filled to the rafters with proud guests - a joyous, supportive atmosphere that has quickly become a defining hallmark of the revised structure.
