The Order of the Holy Royal Arch is the final part of the four-stage journey from Initiation to Exaltation that is known as ‘Pure Antient Masonry’ - and is available to every Master Mason of at least four weeks standing. All our Chapters are associated with at least one of the 75 Lodges in the Province – and most bear a similar name and number to that Craft Lodge – and meet at the same venue. However, whilst many of our members do belong to these linked Craft and Chapter units, there are many who choose to join a different Chapter and even meet at a different venue – this widens their experience and circle of Masonic friends. Each Lodge in the Province now has a ‘Royal Arch Representative’ – so that every Master Mason has easy access to an experienced Royal Arch Companion, who can advise and guide them in taking this fourth and final step in their journey through ‘Pure Antient Masonry’.
