A LIST of the LODGES in and about London and Westminster
Many Lodges have by Accidents broken up, or are partition’d, or else removed to new Places for their Conveniency, and so, if subsisting, they are called and known by those new Places or their Signs.
But the subsisting Lodges, whose Officers have attended the Grand Lodge or Quarterly Communication, and brought their Benevolence to the General Charity within 12 Months past, are here set down according to their Seniority of Constitution, as in the Grand Lodge-Books and the Engraven List.
