The name of the Province does not reflect its geographical extent, which covers the whole of West and South Yorkshire and parts of North and East Yorkshire, an area of some 2,350 sq miles from Ripon in the North to Sheffield in the South, Bentham in the West to Goole in the East. The diversity of the region, from moorland to major industrial centre and market town to large urban conurbation, is reflected in the membership profile, which represents every social and cultural group of the population.
The Province consists of over 200 Lodges and 80 Chapters with in excess of 7,000 members who meet in Masonic Centres throughout the Province.
The aim of this website is to provide Freemasons, their family and friends, with information regarding Masonic activities in the Province. It is also aimed at those who are interested in Freemasonry giving them information about our values, objectives, and the principles that we believe are special.
