The brethren from the Lodge of St Cuthberga have been meeting in Wimborne since 1853. We are the 6th oldest Lodge in the Province of Dorset and the most historic lodge in Wimborne.
We are a very friendly, dynamic and approachable Lodge which has a great reputation for tradition and ritual.
Members of our Lodge at the Annual General Meeting of Dorset Freemasons.
With a diverse membership demographic that includes brothers from a variety of occupations and a wide range of ages we are one of the most regularly attended lodges with visiting members coming from all over Dorset just to see how we do things. We are fully supportive of any member wishing to progress their knowledge in Freemasonry or to pass through the Offices of
the Lodge.
We have young members with families who work full time and, of course older, retired members who just love to mentor their fellow brethren. Our wives and partners have their own dining and social group who call themselves 'The Wimborne Witches' and meet on the same night as our Lodge meetings. This way our Ladies get to know each other, make friends and feel part of the St Cuthberga family. We hold several social events ranging from our traditional Ladies Night to a summer BBQ to black tie dinners, horse racing evenings and rafting on the River Stour, all of which contribute significantly to our charitable giving.
At St Cuthberga there are no hidden agendas, just good men trying to make themselves better whilst serving the community at large and enjoying themselves at the same time.
We meet on the first Monday of the month, except in August.
This is our banner depicting St Cuthburga after whom our Lodge is named, which hangs proudly in our temple. It is over 150 years old.

This is one of the highlights of our masonic year and enjoyed even more so during our relaxed and informal dinner where good food, drink and great company is a well loved part of our lodge meetings.
You can see a little more of what we get up to by following us on social media
Freemasons are focused on building themselves as people of integrity and membership provides the structure to help achieve that goal.
Freemasonry provides the common foundation for friendships between members, many of which will
last for life.
Freemasonry brings people together irrespective of their race, religion or any other perceived differences that can divide us as a society.
Whether participating in events, fundraising for a charitable cause or volunteering for public or community organisations, SERVICE is at the very heart of Freemasonry. Our members make valuable contributions by donating time, resources and skills.
