LODGE OF WELCOME

n 1936 two Freemasons residing in Leicester, Bro. George Gallimore of the Incorporated Accountants Lodge No.4255 (London), and Bro. Howard Clarke of the Wyggeston Lodge No.3448, thought there was scope for a new Lodge, primarily to accommodate brethren already initiated in other Provinces who for business reasons had taken residence in Leicester... A letter was sent on 1st May 1936 to interested Brethren regarding a meeting on the 5th May. In addition to Bros. Gallimore and Clarke, 13 Brethren expressed an interest. Following this meeting a further meeting was arranged in September for prospective founders, the number of founders had now grown to 20 in total.
