Church of St Luke

The Church of St Luke is a building of group value, dating largely to the 15th century, with significant remodelling in 1819 and additions by B Ferrey in 1874. It is constructed of coursed red and grey Pennant rubble with ashlar dressings, set beneath stone-coped slate roofs. The church comprises an aisled nave with chapels flanking the chancel, a south porch, and a west tower. It is designed in the Perpendicular Gothic style.

The east end features a three-light window with cinquefoil heads and intersecting tracery. The northeast chapel has a restored three-light east window and a two-light north window, both with cinquefoil-headed tracery. The southeast chapel displays a three-light window with cinquefoil ogee heads. The north aisle, spanning four bays, has windows with cinquefoiled ogee heads, and a tall east window. The south aisle, largely unrestored, showcases 15th-century buttresses and a moulded plinth, alongside windows with cinquefoil heads and panel tracery. The late 15th-century south porch is distinguished by crocketed pinnacles and late 19th-century doors within a pointed arch. The tower is a fine three-stage structure with string courses, offset buttresses, and crocketed pinnacles, featuring a late 19th-century west door, windows with cinquefoil heads, and a stair turret with a crocketed spire.

Inside, a late 19th-century Decorated reredos, piscina, sedilia, and biblical texts are set within crocketed canopies. Further interior features include late 19th-century archways, a Jacobean pulpit, square-ended pews, and a font with a cushion capital. Historic memorials include a tomb slab to Thomas Newman (died 1542), and wall plaques to George Braikenridge and the Ireland family. Notable features include arch-braced roofs, with the nave roof supported by corbels to the arcade, and stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops.
