Ayton Lodge No 9595 was consecrated in the Afton Hall in Ayton School on the 10th February 1996.
Its aims and objectives were to establish a formal Masonic presence in Great Ayton, to promote friendship between members and their families and to encourage an involvement in the community of Great Ayton.
Many of the Founders, and more recently joining members, are members of several Lodges in nearby towns seldom meeting together as one body. The founding of this Lodge within the village created the platform for these people to join together with a common cause as inhabitants of Great Ayton. From this basis new candidates could be sought to expand the small original group. This has been done and continues.
There have been many occasions when wives and / or families and friends have joined the members on social occasions with tremendous success and it is intended that these will continue!
