The Foundation of
The Duke of Cornwall Lodge
No. 1839
In the year 1879, a group of ardent Freemasons
desiring to extend the
wonderful teachings and
tenets of the
Craft, took steps to form a new
Lodge
from
a few of the then existing Lodges.
On 16th July of that year a Warrant
bearing
the
signature of Albert Edward Grand Master
(later
King Edward VII)
was granted.
Permission to use the title and crest of the
Duke of Cornwall was granted by
The Prince
of Wales (the same Albert Edward,
Grand
Master). The consecration took place
just over a month later at
Freemasons' Hall,
London, on 30th August 1879.
