Yarborough Lodge was consecrated in 1812 as the Farmers Lodge no 352 by the Athol or Antients' Grand Lodge. It was renamed the Yarborough Lodge after a visit to the Island of Jersey by Charles, 2nd Earl of Yarborough, Deputy Grand Master of England in September 1856.

Much of its ritual has its origins in the Athol working, which differs significantly from rituals used by the other Jersey Lodges.
