Church Of St Mary

The Church of St Mary is a parish church located in Luxborough Village. The chancel dates back to the 13th century, while the lower stages of the tower were erected in the 15th century and altered later. A north aisle was added in 1861, the nave was largely rebuilt, and the upper stages of the tower were added. The south porch was constructed in 1890, with restorations occurring in 1969 and between 1973 and 1974. The church is built of roughcast with an exposed flat-bedded slate tower and porch, featuring Ham stone dressings and slate roofs with coped verges.

The church consists of a four-bay nave, a chancel, a four-bay north aisle, a south porch, and a west tower. The three-stage saddle-back tower is aligned east-west and has diagonal buttresses at the west end leading to the second stage. It features 2-light louvred bell openings at the west end, a string course, and cross loop openings on the returns. Below the bell openings, there are additional 2-light louvred openings and a 2-light window above a pointed arch west door, which has a 19th-century door. The gabled south porch has a chamfered pointed arch opening with 19th-century double doors, and it is lit on the returns. The inner door is unmoulded. The nave has two 3-light windows, and there are large irregular buttresses at the junction with the chancel. The chancel has lancets flanking the priest's door, with a stepped buttress to the left, and a 3-light east window. The north front of the chancel features two lancets and two 3-light windows, while the north aisle has two 3-light windows.

Inside, the tower is rendered with exposed random rubble, and there are chamfered arches for the chancel and tower. The church features 19th-century open wagon roofs and a four-bay arcade of chamfered arches, with the outer bays springing from plain responds. A 15th-century octagonal font is present, and the east window is dedicated to Lieutenant Lethbridge, who died in 1899. The church also contains mid to late 19th-century fittings.
