The Ancient Order of Druids (AOD) was founded in England in 1781 as a secret society, rather similar to the Freemasons. The tradition in the Order is that it was organised by a Henry Hurle, builder and surveyor of London, at a meeting at the Kings Arms Tavern in Poland Street, London; it was organized along the lines of Freemasonry, thus setting in motion the movement of Neodruidism that continues to this day. In 1935 the group held its 150th congress at Stonehenge and can still be reached today, listed under Druids in the London telephone directory.
