The first organization of Masons, known as the Premier Grand Lodge of England, was founded in 1717. It was established by four London lodges that came together at the Goose and Gridiron tavern in St. Paul's Churchyard. Key figures in its founding include Anthony Sayer, who became the first Grand Master. This marked the beginning of organized Freemasonry as we know it today.
