A very special night was enjoyed by all on the 9th October 2023, when there was an Installation and Initiation at the Lodge of Goodwill on the same night, at Knowle Masonic Temple.
Due to work commitments the Master Elect Luke Stanton could not attend the usual September Installation meeting which was then postponed to October, and the Initiation for Craig Thompson having already been arranged was done on the same night. This is the first time W. Bro. Luke has been appointed Worshipful Master.
The meeting was highly organised by W. Bro. David Wright, W. Bro. Michael Hodkinson and W. Bro. Neil Watkin.

This photo shows Colonel Sir William Wyley, PGM of Warwickshire in 1939 with the freemasons. This piqued my interest as when the research was done for the Lodge of Goodwill Centenary, it was discovered that the Consecration meeting of the Lodge in 1919 was presided over by the then R W PGM Colonel W F Wyley DL, VD, P S Gnd Deacon England.
