Liverpool Mercantile Lodge, No. 4319 was established in November 1921 to accommodate the growing number of men wishing to join Freemasonry after The First World War.
It drew its membership from businesmen in the City and originally it met at The Exchange Hotel (attached to what was Moorfields Station) in Tithebarn Street. It moved to the Adlephi Hotel and still meets there.
It has never been a large lodge and membership, drawn from a wide range of professions and who live from the south coast of England up to Aberdeen, remains at approximately 30.
