Order of Royal and Select Masters

In England and Wales, the degrees are practiced as a stand-alone organisation of Freemasonry while in some other Masonic Constitutions, particularly in North America they, it is a part of the York Rite.

[1] The Order is today administrated from Mark Masons' Hall, London.

Members wear a jewel and a characteristic apron which is triangular in shape.

The Grand Council in London controls overseas districts in South Africa, the Caribbean, and the Channel Islands, and also controls a few isolated overseas councils in the Isle of Man and across several nations of western Europe and the Far East.

The first four are worked by local councils of the Order, and most members will progress through all four degrees.
