It had three meeting places in Barrhead before building the present temple in 1910. The lounges downstairs were formed in 1980 while the function suite was built in 1994. The temple itself is arguably the grandest building in Barrhead. Many of the old street in Barrhead are named after the Lodge's members, for example Glen Street, Heys Street, John Street and Henry Street. The Cowan Park was also donated to the town by the brothers James and Lochlan Conan, founding members of the Lodge.
