Installation and Annual Service

All Liverymen and Freemen of the Tylers’ and Bricklayers’ Company are summoned to attend the Installation of the Master and Wardens at the Church of St Margaret Lothbury, commencing shortly after 11.00 am following the arrival of the procession of the Court of Assistants.

The proceedings at the Church will include the installation of the Officers and will be followed immediately by the customary Service led by the Company Chaplain, the Reverend John Cook and the Rector of St Margaret Lothbury, the Reverend Prebendary Jeremy Crossley.

Following the Service the Company and their Guests will return to Carpenters’ Hall where they will be received by the new Master, Michel Saminaden, and the Wardens Simon Martin and John Schofield.

It is hoped that Members and their guests will all wish to witness the Installation Ceremony and enjoy the Service, but those not able to attend the Church will be most welcome at the Luncheon which is timed for 12.45 for 1.15 pm. Carriages should be booked for 3.30 pm.
