Church of St Luke

The Church of St Luke is a building primarily dating to the 14th century, with a clerestory and porch from the 15th century. The chancel was rebuilt in 1845, the tower in 1873, and the church underwent general restoration in 1886. It is constructed of thinly coursed rubble with ashlar dressings, and has lead roofs. The church features a tall, three-stage west tower with angle buttresses, a three-light west window, two-light bell-chamber openings, decorative frieze, and a crenellated parapet. A south porch is embattled, and the overall impression is of a relatively simple, rural design.

The south aisle has two two-light windows with cusped lights, while the north aisle windows are similarly two-light but feature geometrical tracery. A simply moulded doorway is also present on the north side. The chancel windows are two and three-light designs with square heads, Perpendicular tracery, and deep square hood moulds, and the chancel itself is embattled. Embedded in the west wall of the south aisle is an early 14th century coffin lid bearing relief carvings of naturalistic foliage growing from a cross with stepped base and a foiled head.

Inside, there are four-bay north and south arcades with double-chamfered arches resting on octagonal piers with moulded capitals. The nave roof has massive quadrant-moulded tie-beams, with some purlins similarly moulded. A chancel arch is supported by round responds that are slightly filleted. A piscina is located in the east end of the south aisle. The octagonal font has plain shields and angels under the bowl, and its cover is simple with a re-cut centre piece dated 1665. A small poor-box stands on a pedestal, and is carved with raised letters in sunk panels on three sides, reading "REME THE POORE MBER HF 16 85 RB". The south door retains delicate 13th century ironwork. The church also contains bench ends with carved heads on the arms and poppy heads, and a brass on the chancel floor, commemorating Master Ralph Babington, rector, who died in 1521.

A limestone effigy base from the 16th century, originally discovered in the churchyard in 1983, is situated on the north side of the chancel. It’s tapered and rectangular with a shaped top and bears a Latin inscription referring to William Vaux, 3rd Baron Vaux of Harrowden. On the south side of the chancel is a mid 10th century Anglo-Saxon coffin lid, featuring intricate interlace, a cross, and two beasts. This lid was unearthed in the churchyard around 1821 and relocated from the south aisle wall in around 2000.
