The new Great Hall of the Grand Lodge of Freemasons, 1890. 'The Great Hall, or Throne Room, for the Mark Degree of Master Masons of England and Wales, adjacent to Freemasons' Tavern, Great Queen-street [in the City of London], was reopened by a meeting of the Grand Lodge on Tuesday, June 3. This stately apartment has been renovated, with much skill and taste, by the Honorary Architects, Brother Robert Berridge, Associate Member of the Institute of Civil Engineers, and Brother Charles II. Driver, Fellow of the Royal Institution of British Architects, who are Past Grand Masters of the Order. Besides the Great Hall, there are five Lodge Rooms, with accommodation for Masonic Lodges, Chapters, Conclaves, and Councils of every degree. The meetings of Grand Lodge are henceforth to be quarterly, instead of half-yearly'. From "Illustrated London News", 1890.
