The earliest evidence of the Fraternity's existence dates from 1676 although it may have been constituted earlier. Fourteen years elapsed until the next minuted meeting. The largest attendance at the annual general meetings was 93 in 1803. At the dissolution of the Fraternity in 1953 there were 19 members. The principal activities were mutual benefit through the 'Box' or bank (see also the various Free Gardeners Friendly Societies in FS.4) and shows or competitions for fruit, vegetables and flowers.
