- Comments:
- Enoch Lodge is one of a small number to have a non-standard centenary jewel. Prior to the mid 1860s lodges produced unofficial jewels for centenaries and those with existing jewels were allowed to continue them as a concession when a standard form was made compulsory.
- Comments:
- Although Enoch Lodge was constituted in 1754, the Centenary Warrant was issued in 1855, marking 100 years from the date of the 2nd Warrant of Constitution in 1755.
