Description

The Church of St Luke is a church built in 1865, constructed from coursed slate rubble with sandstone ashlar dressings and slate roofs. It features a nave, a chancel with a south organ loft and a north vestry, and a west tower. The building has coped gables. The five-bay nave includes lancet windows that alternate with weathered buttresses. The two-bay chancel has a gabled organ loft with buttresses, a quatrefoil window on the south side, and an early 19th-century wall sundial from a previous church on the gable. The east side has a triplet of lancets with flanking buttresses, while the north vestry has a catslide roof and a straight-headed window. The west tower features weathered angle buttresses and lancet windows, a gabled south porch, paired louvred bell openings, an embattled parapet, and a pyramidal roof topped with a weather vane. There is also a stair turret on the north side. Inside, the church has a scissor rafter roof and a double-chamfered chancel arch that dies into the jambs. Some windows contain stained glass, while most have leaded glazing in decorative patterns. The interior also features the Georgian royal arms.
