The Mitre Lodge of York was formed in 1954 by the then Headmaster of Archbishop Holgate’s Grammar School, A.B.Hodgson, and other masters and former pupils of the School. It was initially restricted to those connected with the school but was opened to all in 1981.

The Lodge met at the Masonic Hall in Duncombe Place until 1996, when it moved to St Saviourgate, where it still meets today.

Meetings are held on the first Wednesday of each month, except for January, July, August and September, reflecting the school year.

Our year starts in October, with the Installation of the new Master, and ends in June with the annual business meeting. The Master usually serves for one year, although some have held that position twice, and the other officers of the Lodge serve for between one and five years.
