Is this Masonic dress?

[Hephzibah]

This is a photo of an unknown family member.
In order to try and identify which 'line' (Baker or Pendal) Please could someone tell me what all the regalia means.
I'm especially interested in which Lodge he may have belonged. It says Sancroft Lodge 6106 on his apron but according to the Masonic history site Sancroft Lodge is 4347...and what are the initials W.P. are they his initials?
The photo is a picture postcard and there is no writing on the back except for postcard/British made/ and Correspondence/ address.
I'd appreciate any help which can be given.
Thank you.

Really sorry about quality, it kept saying file was too large and I couldn't work out what to do!!

Certainly Masonic  - could the WPstand for Provincial Warden perhaps. The decorations on the left are Masonic "jewels" issued on a Lodge's formation or some anniversary perhaps. He may have belonged to more than one Lodge. The medals on the left are First World War, " Pip squeak & Wilfred"

Sorry to say that the regalia isn't Masonic, and I believe it and the lodge are more likely to belong to the Ancient Order of the Buffaloes.

There are several threads on here about them and what the initials mean, but I can't remember the links at the moment.

I notice that you have a few names in your profile that are linked to Durham ... you could explore these to get more detail.
