THE masons of Guisborough are opening their doors to passers-by.

The three Masonic Lodges in the small East Cleveland town will hold an open day on Saturday, September 21, between 10am and 4pm.

Spokesman Colin Bell said: "The purpose is to allow people who may be curious about what freemasonry is and what we do, or who may be critical or sceptical about the organisation, to come along and see for themselves the principles and the objectives of freemasonry.
