The earliest extant records of freemasonry in Orkney (as practised today) are to be found in the archives of Lodge Kirkwall Kilwinning dating from 1st October 1736. But much earlier beginnings are suggested. Centuries before speculative freemasonry was introduced to Kirkwall, guilds of operative masons were stationed in Kirkwall for a considerable time during the building and construction of St. Magnus Cathedral which was founded in 1137.
