The Ancient and Accepted Rite in Norfolk extends over the same geographical area administered by The Craft Province of Norfolk. There are 15 Chapters administered by an Inspector General with a District Recorder. Individual Chapters have their own Recorder (secretary).
The District of Norfolk was inaugurated on the 4th March 1998 when the new District of Cambridge and Isle of Ely was also formed thus completing the division of the old District of East Anglia.
Albert Edward Chapter No 87 is the oldest Chapter in the District having been consecrated in December 1880. Clarence Chapter No 116 also dates back to the late 1800’s having been consecrated in June 1891.
