The Morningside Lodge now in its
second century ............
Our History
In 1910 a number of Brethren met for the purpose of forming a new Lodge. This being achieved, the new Lodge was to be named "Lodge Morningside". The inaugural Installation was held on Tuesday 28th June, 1910 and the Brethren met regularly under dispensation until December 1910 when the Lodge charter arrived from the District Grand Lodge of Scotland, UK. The number of the Lodge was 1079, Scottish Constitution. The Lodge continued to operate under this charter until 1921. When the United Grand Lodge of Queensland was formed and the Lodges were invited to join, our Lodge name and number was changed, we became "The Morningside Lodge" and our new number was 196. This is the charter we work under to this day.
Present Day
We meet at the Masonic Memorial Centre, 311 Ann Street Brisbane on the 1st Tuesday night of each month except January. Tyling (opening) time is 7.15pm. We conduct our Installation Ceremony on the 3rd Saturday in July each year. Our practice night is on the fourth Tuesday of the month. We are a progressive Lodge with a strong social and charitable program. We have a keen focus on Masonic education, maintaining a high standard of Masonic work, and maintaining a close bond between members.
