MASONIC LODGE LAYOUT
The layout below is typical of a Masonic Lodge. While the
entrances sometimes vary due to structural configuration, the majority are thus
oriented.
Grand Lodge, when in session, follows pretty much the same
arrangement. The name of the office as listed in the diagram pertains to the
Craft Lodge, or Blue Lodge as it is sometimes known. By simply adding the prefix
"Grand" to the officers, we have the Grand Lodge layout. There are,
however, extra offices in Grand Lodge with no particular seating arrangement
other than the District Deputy Grand Masters who are seated near the Secretary's
desk. Other Grand Lodge Offices not listed in diagram, in no particular order,
include: Grand Organist, Grand Standard Bearer, Grand Sword Bearer, Grand
Historian, Grand Piper and Assistant Grand Director of Ceremonies. The presiding
Master of each Blue Lodge holds the position of Grand Steward.
Below is a typical British lodge layout. Holding your mouse over the shaded chairs will produce a pop-up
with the name of the Grand Lodge Officer occupying that position. Clicking on
it, or the link above, will bring up a picture. Please use your browser

Below is a typical US lodge layout. As you can see there
is not that much difference
