Description

The Church of St Luke is a Gothic Revival church built in 1887, constructed from hammer-dressed stone and featuring a pitched slate roof with gable copings. It has a south-west tower with an entrance on the south side, a 6-bay nave with lean-to buttressed aisles and a clerestory, and a 2-bay chancel with an attached vestry. The west end of the nave has a two-sided apse. The aisle windows consist of 2 and 3 lights with simple tracery, while the clerestory windows are arranged in triple groups with cusped heads. The large 5-light east window showcases stained glass with a traceried head and hood mould. The tower is three tiers high with angle buttresses, a clock face on the second tier, paired louvred openings for the bell chamber, and a hexagonal stone broach spire with louvred lucarnes.

Inside, the church has a spacious interior with a 4-bay arcade on each side, featuring alternative round and octagonal piers. The angled apse to the west contains a carved stone font supported by granite colonnettes and topped with a carved oak cover. There is a Lady chapel to the north with a parclose screen, and a carved stone reredos that includes carved figures and niches, with a centerpiece depicting the Last Supper.
