“The Degree of Mark Master Mason is open to all Master Masons,” explains Mark Masons’ Hall. “The ceremony, in which a Brother is ‘advanced’, can be said to comprise two Degrees; the first in which he is acknowledged as a Mark Man, followed by the second where he becomes a Mark Master Mason.”
“The Mark referred to in its title takes its name from the mark or symbol with which the stonemason identified his work and can still be found in many cathedrals and important buildings.”
MW Bro His Royal Highness Prince Michael of Kent, GCVO, is Grand Master of The Grand Lodge of Mark Master Masons of England and Wales and its Districts and Lodges Overseas.
Mark Masons’ Hall has produced a short film which explains what Mark masonry is, how it came about, and the role that it plays in the wider world of Freemasonry. You can see it here.
