Church of St Luke

The Church of St. Luke is a parish church that dates from the 15th century and was altered between 1771 and 1773. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble with ashlar detailing, and features slate and lead roofs. The building includes a west tower, a nave, an apsidal chancel, and a south porch.

The tower consists of two stages and has a moulded string course and an embattled parapet adorned with 15th-century corner pinnacles. Originally unbuttressed, it now has added angle buttresses. The west door is blocked, featuring a recut two-light, four-centred arched window above it. Below the string course, there is a narrow blocked light. The belfry stage has paired lights under four-centred arches with hood moulds on all four sides. On the north wall of the ashlar nave, there is a single semi-circular headed window with a keystone and hood mould. The nave itself has a plinth, parapet, and a moulded cornice. The lead-roofed apse has a deep plinth and single keyed oculi on its sides. The south side of the nave mirrors the north with two matching windows.

The south porch is pedimented and features angle pilasters, a semi-circular headed door with impost blocks, a hood mould, and a keystone, along with panelled double doors. The south door has a single plain order with a keystone.

Inside, the tower arch consists of two chamfered orders with narrow octagonal capitals and responds. The rounded chancel arch has a moulded architrave and imposts. There is a dentillated frieze in both the nave and chancel, while the nave has a plain coved ceiling. The rear arches of the windows are framed with architraves. The nave contains plain panelling up to dado height, an 18th-century oak octagonal pulpit with brass candlesticks, and finely curved altar rails with delicately turned balusters. The font is an 18th-century octagonal baluster shape supported by splayed wrought iron brackets. On the chancel floor, there are two small brass plaques, one commemorating Edward Monson, who died in 1714, and another undated plaque for Sir John Monson. Additionally, on the south wall of the nave, there is a white marble wall plaque in the Greek style dedicated to Caleb Slater, who died in 1805.
