Since the founding of the Lodge our membership has been initially from Paddock Wood and the surrounding villages. East Peckham, Brenchley, Matfield, Pembury, Five Oak Green, Marden and Wateringbury, and towns of Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells both from life-long residents and those moving to the parishes from elsewhere. During our existence, we have had family groups amongst our membership.

As someone who, through philanthropic interests, wishes to become a member you will always be made welcome. Our brethren come from a variety of backgrounds and with this, a wealth of experiences to share. Especially at festive boards, following our meetings.
