What IS IT?
Almost universally known as “Rose Croix”, the Ancient & Accepted Rite has 9 Chapters meeting in the District – which has the same boundaries as the Craft Province.
The District is headed by V∴Ill∴Bro Roy E Stone, 33°, as Inspector General. An Inspector General can appoint a District Recorder to assist him and in our case he is Ill∴Bro Anthony M Rees, 31°
The qualification for becoming a member of this Order is that of being a Master Mason for one year or more and the usual requirement of having two sponsors. If you are already a member, there is no restriction on you inviting your Masonic colleagues to join if they fit the criteria.
