Since 1901

A fellowship rooted in Charterhouse

Founded in 1901, the Lodge brings together Old Carthusians, masters and staff of Charterhouse School, and Brothers of Sutton's Hospital in a friendship that long outlasts schooldays.

We meet four times each year and dine together afterwards in the traditions of the Lodge — and we are always glad to welcome new members and guests.

Why Join

Carthusian for life, not just for school

For Old Carthusians, masters and staff, the Lodge is one of the few places where the friendships, the network and the sense of belonging carry on for life — and where a younger member is welcomed as readily as the most senior.

A network for life

Real friendships and connections across every generation of Carthusians — people who open doors, offer advice, and have your back long after you leave.

Stay part of Charterhouse

Keep your link to the School and to Brooke Hall alive for decades — not through a mailing list, but through people you actually know and see.

Something with meaning

More than a social club: a 120-year tradition of ceremony, self-improvement and quiet purpose, carried on in a historic City livery hall.

A table worth turning up for

Dine together after every meeting — fine wines, ports and liqueurs from the Lodge's own cellar, and traditions you'll want to see for yourself.

Give something back

Be part of a Lodge with a proud record of charitable giving — supporting the School, the City and causes its members care about.

No experience needed

You don't have to be a Freemason, or know anyone already. Most members started exactly where you are — and the first step is simply dinner.
