Thanks, that's helpful.  I found some great old ordnance maps at http://www.nls.uk/digitallibrary/map/townplans/index.html.

I've been looking through the addresses of current lodges and have found that in more than one case, four or five lodges share the same address.  I'm curious about this.

Thanks. No I haven't looked at that one. Is there a web site affiliated with the lodge?  I haven't seen one and wonder if you have a good source.

This one lists current daughter lodges in Renfrewshire:

This is the homepage of the lodge of Erskine:

And this one may help too:

And I rthink I was getting freemasons and Knights Templers mixed up....this is a history mentioning Inchinnan:
