Description
The Church of St Luke is a Grade II listed building constructed in 1898, featuring a foundation stone. It is built from snecked sandstone rubble and has a red tile roof. The church is designed in a free Gothic style, comprising a nave, a north aisle, and a squat tower with a hipped roof situated between the nave and the chancel. The south wall of the nave showcases flowing tracery of various designs, while the north aisle has cusped lights. There is a timbered north porch, and a bell is housed in a wooden bellcote that projects from the roof of the tower.
Inside, the nave consists of three bays with double chamfered arches supported by cylindrical piers. The tower, positioned over the fourth bay, is supported by large arches on the east and west sides. The tower features a flat timber ceiling, while the nave and chancel have an open timber roof. The nave also includes arch-braced collars with alternate raised ties.
