I wonder if the Masons are beginning to fade out? In my home town of Peterborough, UK, there was (is!) an odd building that always intrigued me. It is not far from the City centre, on the corner of Lincoln Road and North Street. This building is partly made of brick and partly of stone and quite unlike the other buildings around it. Yet, in spite of its distinctiveness, no-one ever mentioned it or even seemed to acknowledge that it was there - at least not while I was growing up in Peterborough (in the 50s and 60s).
Eventually, someone (I forget who) told me that the building was a Freemasons' Hall. I think that there may be a Masonic set square symbol, up near the eaves, but perhaps I imagined it (?)
I don't get back to P'boro all that often, these days - so imagine my shock, on my last visit, to discover that the world's (at least my world's) most mysterious building had been turned into an Italian Restaurant!
