At our installation meeting on Wednesday Sept 1st 2011, Bro Kevin Aylott was installed as Commander in an exemplary manner by W.Bro Bill Newton. The meeting was attended by RW Bro David Nelson, Provincial Grand Master for Somerset. He was accompanied by Bro Andy Gray, Provincial Asst Grand DC. The meeting was a very happy occasion and the DC was very proud in the manner that the ceremony was conducted. (Despite the slanderous rumour that the Installing Master was working to the 1935 Ritual Book!) Peter Knapman.

Installation meeting 2nd September 2010.
This was a special evening, celebrating not only the installation of a new Commander but the 25th Anniversary of the Lodge. Deputy PGM Ray Guthrie was in attendance to witness Mike Condick install his successor, Bill Newton in fine style. Immediately after the meeting a sherry reception was held for all the members and visitors, a chance to chat about the good times that the brethren have enjoyed in this wonderful Lodge.
