What is the Lodge of Antiquity?
The Lodge of Antiquity No. 2 is one of the four original lodges that met at the Apple-Tree Tavern and the Goose and Gridiron in 1717 to form the Grand Lodge of England. At that time meeting at the Goose and Gridiron in St. Paul's Churchyard, the lodge derived no warrant from the newly established body, operating instead by immemorial constitution. Among its historic property is the Antiquity Manuscript, a parchment roll containing the Old Charges written in 1686 by Robert Padgett.
