Freemasons Arms is a fairly common name for British pubs.

Freemasons Arms, Long Acre, WC2

One such is a Shepherd Neame pub on Long Acre in London. It claims to be the site where both the Football Association and the Geological Society of London were founded; however this may be merely because the pub succeeded to the business of the Freemasons' Tavern, which was demolished in 1860 to rebuild Freemasons Hall, 250 yards east in Great Queen Street on the site of the New Connaught Rooms.

The Freemasons Tavern in Hove, East Sussex, is a 19th-century inn whose façade was elaborately redecorated in 1928 with Masonic symbols. It is a Grade II listed building.[1]
