Freemasonry!

St. Giles Masonic Centre is the principal centre for Freemasonry in North Essex and amongst the twelve Masonic Craft Lodges is home to the most ancient of Lodges in Essex - Angel. Colchester Freemasonry has a lot to offer from the foundation stone to the higher orders, welcoming members and visitors alike.

Historic St. Giles!

The site on which St. Giles Masonic Centre now sits is steeped in history. It extends back nearly 2000 years to the time of the Roman occupation and features again through the Norman invasion and conquest and also to the time of the Civil war. This Grade II listed building as a church was, in its time, the largest parish in Colchester and has served the community for over 800 years.
