Statutory Communication
The Statutory Communication of the Provincial Grand Lodge of Fife and Kinross, was held on Saturday 25 October 2025. Presiding was the Right Worshipful Provincial Grand Master Brother Bill Rocks.
The first Provincial Grand Master is referred to in Grand Lodge minutes as follows: "7th August 1745. The Grand Master produced a letter from Alexander Melville of Balgarvie, Esq., present Master of the Mason Lodge of Falkland, signifying that he had spoken to the Rt. Hon. The Earl of Leven, late Grand Master of Scotland, who informed him that he never gave five guineas to any person for the use of Grand Lodge nor was he ever told that such a thing was due otherwise he would have passed it, so that there is good hope the same will yet be paid. Balgarvie also desires a Commission to be Provincial Grand Master of the Lodges of Fife, which is granted and signed accordingly."
2025 marks the 280th anniversary of our Provincial Grand Lodge, to mark the event a photograph of the current Provincial Grand Lodge office bearers was taken at this communication.
