The number of appointments which can be made to Provincial Grand Rank each year is limited by the Book of Constitutions and in this province is not sufficient for one from each Lodge, each year.
The conferment of Provincial Grand Rank is the prerogative of the Provincial Grand Master, whose decision cannot be questioned.
Rank is conferred in respect of an individual's merits and not in respect of the merits of the Lodge.
The honour conferred on a Brother is that of being appointed one of the officers, Present or Past of the Provincial Grand Master, irrespective of the Rank of that Office.
Rank is not only a reward and recognition for past service, but is to be regarded as an opportunity and incentive for further service to Freemasonry.
David Davies
David was born and raised in the Salisbury area and whilst starting his career in retail spent many years as a certified financial adviser and Building Society Manager locally. He is married to Marian and they have four children and four grand children. He has now retired to Warminster.
His masonic career nearly began in 1975 when his grandfather asked him if he was interested in becoming a mason which he declined much to his sadness since. It was to be a further 19 years before he took the "first step".
David was initiated into the Border Lodge No. 3129 in 1994 and was subsequently made WM in 2003. He also served as Worshipful Master of the Wiltshire Masters Lodge No 6731 in 2015.
David held office as a Steward, Senior Deacon, Assistant Secretary and subsequently Provincial Grand Secretary.
In 2017 he was appointed and invested as Deputy Provincial Grand Master of Wiltshire subsequent to being honoured with Grand Rank in 2016, attaining Past Assistant Grand Director of Ceremonies.
Philip Bullock
Philip is married to Sally and they have a daughter, Sarah, who has a daughter and son of her own. Before embarking on a well deserved retirement Philip was a Senior National Sales Manager for Pfizer UK.

Active Provincial Ranks include Provincial Grand Steward in October 2007; Provincial Grand Sword Bearer in October 2008 and Provincial Grand Senior Warden in October 2009.
In 2012 Philip was honoured by the MW Grand Master with Grand Rank as Past Junior Grand Deacon and in 2013 was advanced to the rank of Past Senior Grand Deacon. His most recent appointment was as Assistant Provincial Grand Master.
