Welcome to the web-site of "117" - as this Shropshire Lodge is known to members and friends alike. Founded in 1810, 117 has a distinguished history and is a member of the Atholl Association, signifying that it was created as an 'Antient' Lodge before the Unification of the English Grand Lodges in 1813. 

It is an exciting time for this old Lodge, which will be 200 years old in April, 2010. The celebrations for this event are eagerly awaited, including a Masonic Festival meeting on Wednesday, 2nd June, 2010.

Today the Lodge meets in Shrewsbury, and is dedicated to the Masonic tenets of Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth - in modern parlance, Fellowship, Charity and the pursuit of high ideals. Visit our web-site, check up on forthcoming Events and use our Masonic links to explore Masonry further.
