Church Of St Luke

The Church of St Luke, located on St Luke's Road in Southport, was built between 1878 and 1880 by the architectural firm Mellor and Sutton. It is constructed of red brick with some blue brick dressings and features slate roofs. The church is designed in a severe Early English style.

The building has a tall nave accompanied by a lean-to baptistery at the west end, which is flanked by gabled porches. It also includes low lean-to aisles, a chancel with transepts, and a round apse. The exterior showcases a five-bay nave with pilaster strips and two small lancet clerestory windows in each bay. The aisles are supported by simple buttresses and contain three small lancets in each bay. A bellcote is situated at the junction with the chancel.

At the west end, the buttressed two-window baptistery rises to half the height of the west wall. Above this, a pair of pilaster strips frame three blind lancets, a blind oculus, and a small triple lancet in the gable. The large porches, positioned at right angles to the sides of the baptistery, feature large two-centred arched doorways in the gables and small triple lancets on the west sides.

While the interior has not been inspected, it is known to have exposed brick walls, columns made of granite with large shaft-rings, and untraditional capitals.
