John Cross Memorial Loyal Orange Lodge was named after John Cross, a Quantity Surveyor and a member of Bennett?s Chosen Few L.O.L. 553 who was killed in an accident at work. His father, the late John Cross Senior, also a member of L.O.L. 553, and a few friends from L.O.L. 553 and Woodburn Ebenezer L.O.L. 787 formed the lodge in Milebush Old School, Carrickfergus during February 1952.
Up until the year 2000 the Lodge met in the Old School. However, the years have taken their toll on this stone building which initially served as a State Elementary School and the Lodge was forced, with great regret, to move to its present place of meeting at Kilroot Orange Hall. Meetings take place on the third Tuesday of every month.
