The Masonic Hall is a historic building on Duncombe Place in York, in England.
The building was designed by J. Barton-Wilson and John Edwin Gates and was completed in 1863. It was altered in 1866, and a large extension was added in the early 20th century. It is of two storeys, with a basement beneath. The original building, including the masonic hall itself, is of grey brick, while the extension is red brick. The entrance is now through the extension. The front has a moulding depicting masonic symbols. The library has 18th century panelling and a fireplace of similar date.
The hall is home to several masonic lodges, including the York Lodge, founded as the Union Lodge in 1777. From 1806, the lodge was based at 7 Little Blake Street, but that property was demolished when Duncombe Place was constructed, and the current hall was then built.[1] The building is the oldest purpose-built masonic hall in the city.[2]
The building was grade II listed in 1997.
