Founded 1947, this lodge number and name does not correspond to any lodge under United Grand Lodge of England so it is probably for a foreign jurisdiction lodge within England; founded in 1945.

Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Anthony Gadie T.D. (7 September 1868 – 24 August 1948) was an English businessman and Conservative Party politician from Bradford in West Yorkshire. A self-made man and born in a small cottage in Skipton, he became a builder and then an estate agent, rising to become a Lord Mayor of Bradford and a local councillor and Alderman for 45 years. He served as an army officer in France during the Great War and as a Member of Parliament in the 1920s, but is best known for his involvement with construction of the Scar House Reservoir.
