Church of St Luke

The Church of St Luke is a parish church built in 1845 by George Wightwick. It is constructed from coursed greenstone rubble with limestone dressings and features a slate roof with raised coped verges on the chancel. The church has a nave and chancel, with a south porch leading to the nave and a north vestry attached to the chancel.

The nave includes weathered buttresses and has a 2-light and a 3-light window on the south side, both with 4-centred arched heads, hood moulds, and Perpendicular tracery. The west end of the nave features a gabled porch with a tall 4-centred arched doorway and double doors, along with raised coped verges and kneelers topped with a cross finial. There is also a similar 2-light window with Y-tracery at the west end. On the north side, there are two 3-light windows and a central 2-light window, mirroring the south side. A slate-hung bellcote with a bell and a spire topped with a cross finial adorn the structure.

The chancel, which has a lower roof level, contains a 3-light east window with cusped lights and reticulated tracery, along with a similar 2-light window on the south side. The north vestry is attached to the chancel.

Inside, the nave features a 4-bay hammer-beam roof supported by stone corbels. There is a stepped chamfered 4-centred arch leading to the chancel, and a pointed arched door to the north vestry, which includes a squint doorway providing access to the pulpit by the chancel arch. The chancel windows have busts as stops to their hood moulds.

Notable fittings include a fine Norman font from the chapel of St Luke near Bolventor, 19th-century wooden benches in the nave, readers' desks in the chancel with poppy head ends, and a panelled wooden pulpit in the nave. There is also a marble tablet on a slate ground in the chancel commemorating Elizabeth Bury, dated 1853.
