The Broken Column
The Broken Column in Masonic lore is often cited as representing the untimely death of the principal architect of the Temple at Jerusalem, it has also been held to signify the fact that the Temple itself was not completed. In the depiction shown opposite, it is a uniquely poignant symbol signifying the loss of a husband and Freemason. Family is at the heart of Freemasonry, and in the Province of Wiltshire the widows and children of Freemasons are always placed at the centre of our thoughts. The crown of laurel serves only to register the high esteem in which they are held.
