Welcome to our website
Welcome to the Website for the Province of Sussex in the Masonic Order of Athelstan. The Order is based on the historic records of the life and the legend of King Athelstan. It portrays the story of a Master Mason being called to York in 926 AD to receive the Ancient Charges from the king. Throughout its ceremony the ritual contains a great deal of symbolism that is still seen in some Lodges today and a great deal that is not currently worked.
The Order, in England and Wales, is structured so that its Provinces, wherever possible, reflect and represent the original Kingdoms and Gilds (original spelling of Guilds) as set up by King Athelstan. The Athelstan Provincial structure does not reflect current English Counties. Each Province is limited to a maximum of ten Courts (the Athelstan equivalent of a Lodge).
Whether you are a member of the Order seeking information relating to our Province or you are visitor seeking information about The Order or our Province you are most welcome.
