Historia biográfica
The Shakespear Lodge was constituted on 15 February 1757. Then known as the Parliament Street Coffee House Lodge, it met at the Parliament Street Coffee House, Parliament Street, Westminster. In 1772 the Lodge moved to the Castle Tavern, Henrietta Street, Covent Garden and in 1773 adopted the name Castle Lodge. Later in 1773 the Lodge moved to the Shakespear Tavern, Covent Garden Piazza and was subsequently renamed Shakespear Lodge. This name has been retained to date despite additional movements of the Lodge: Freemasons Tavern, Great Queen Street; Albion Tavern, Aldersgate Street; Savoy Hotel, Thames Embankment; Princes Restaurant, Piccadilly; Criterion Restaurant, Jermyn Street/ Piccadilly; Hotel Splendide, 105 Piccadilly; No. 96 Piccadilly; The Cafe Royal, 68 Regent Street; The Constitutional Club, St James Street/ St James Palace; Bakers Hall, Harp Lane, Lower Thames Street; and Mark Masons' Hall, 86 St James Street. The number of the Lodge, centrally registered with the Grand Lodge, has undergone several revisions, although it has remained as number 99 since 1863.
