Administrative / biographical background

Royal Lodge was granted a warrant by the Moderns' Grand Lodge on 4 April 1764 and met at the Horn Tavern, Westminster, London. The Lodge met initially as The New Lodge but it was renamed as Royal Lodge in 1767, when it met at the Thatched House Tavern, St James's Street, London, where meetings remained until 1824. The Lodge united that year with Alpha Lodge, No. 16 [SN 37] to become Royal Alpha Lodge, which meets at Freemasons' Hall, Great Queen Street, London.
