The District has a Travelling Toby Jug proudly wearing his 18th Degree Rose Croix Regalia.

 

There are conflicting opinions as to who he was modelled on and the Inspector General has his own theory.

​

The Toby Jug travels around the District of East Cheshire by being "held" by a Chapter until another Chapter sends a "raiding party" of five members, at least one of whom must be an 18th Degree Prince to capture him.

​

The raiding party must announce their intention at the social board and declare that they will look after the Toby Jug until he is captured again from them.

​

By a mysterious process, the workings of which are lost, the Inspector General or District Recorder usually attend meetings when the Toby Jug is captured to try and ensure fair play but have little or no control over what goes on.
