  • 0 Lancashire PGM Abridged
    The Five PGMs of Lancashire 1734 to 1826 By: Eddie Forkgen As early as 1661 the influential London based Royal Society requested a former Society President and a freemason of 20 years standing to write the history of Freemasonry. Also Dr. Francis Drake, a Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of All England at York in 1767 and a member of the Royal Society and who it is also thought to have also submitted a written history of Freemasonry, Both documents seems to have been mislaid during the time when the Duke of Sussex was President of the Royal Society (1830-38). We know that freemasonry was active in Lancashire in the 17th century, as Elias Ashmole recorded in his diary the fact that he was initiated into a Lodge in Warrington in 1646. We also have a number of “Old Masonic Charges” which were written in the 1600’s such as the Colne and the Beswicke MS’s, all of which demonstrates that Lancashire has a rich Masonic heritage. At the beginning of the 18th Century the first Grand Lodge was formed by middle to upper- class freemasons from four London and Westminster lodges, following the departure of the many operative masons from the Capital on the completion of the many building projects following the Great Fire of London. In the first few years of the Grand Lodge the Grand Masters were elected on an annual basis. The third Grand Master, the Revd. Dr. Desaguliers and the 5th Grand Master the Duke of Montagu were both active Fellows of the Royal Society, as were many of the Grand Masters that followed.

These Awards were introduced in 2006 by the then High Sheriff of Cheshire, David Briggs MBE KStJ, to recognise outstanding achievements by enterprises in Cheshire, Halton and Warrington. During my year of office, my focus is on volunteering and shining the spotlight on those organisations and charities that do so much good for our wonderful County and who are the unsung heroes that are the glue in our communities. With this in mind, I am very much looking forward to working with a range of businesses across the region who help their communities through voluntary and charitable work. I know through the High Sheriff’s charity, Crimebeat, how rewarding working with others can be and how their fantastic work supports young people throughout the County, enabling them to be involved in projects within their communities, stay safe and ultimately providing them with the opportunity High Sheriff of Cheshire, 2016/17 to improve our communities throughout Cheshire. Kathy Cowell, OBE DL I hope you recognise the synergy between your own business activities and the Award categories and I look forward to seeing the entries and celebrating business in our region.
