Uxacona Lodge was consecrated on 9th June 1938, and is one of 36 Masonic Lodges in the Province of Shropshire warranted by the United Grand Lodge of England. The word Uxacona is Roman in origin and was a Romano-British settlement located near to present-day Oakengates.

We meet at the Masonic Hall, Constitution Hill, Wellington, Telford TF1 3AY. Meetings are held on the last Thursday of each month from September to April.  

The meeting starts at 6pm promptly for Lodge business and is followed at around 8pm by a formal meal called the Festive Board, taken at the Lodge's own dining facility. The evening normally concludes at around 10pm.

Rehearsals for ceremonies are normally held on the third Thursday of the month, which brethren who are involved are very much encouraged to attend. New members are included early on, and most follow a well-structured progression which will ultimately lead them to become Worshipful Master of the lodge for a year. In time, brethren will be encouraged to visit other lodges, perhaps join other Orders and/or do other work according to their inclination and abilities.

In addition to Masonic meetings, the lodge holds social events and informal gatherings, also supporting those held by other Lodges and the Province. Partners and friends are often welcomed to these. Money raised by the Lodge is donated to its own charities, to the Shropshire funds and also to the national masonic charities, which donate to many worthy causes.

Uxacona membership is drawn from many different backgrounds, faiths and ages. It is an important rule, however, that religion and politics should never be discussed at a Masonic meeting. Experienced members are tasked with supporting new brethren through our mentoring system.

Above all, we enjoy our Freemasonry!
