Church Of St Luke

The Church of St. Luke is a parish church built in 1818 by H.H. Seward for the Commissioners of Greenwich Hospital. It is constructed of ashlar stone and features a graduated Lakeland slate roof. The building consists of a west tower, a nave, and a chancel combined into one structure, along with a north vestry.

The tower also serves as the porch and includes a pointed-arched doorway set in a broad chamfered surround. Above the doorway is a small lancet window, and the bell stage features three tall, closely set lancets topped with a castellated parapet.

The church has three bays and is adorned with tall Y-tracery windows, each set in broad chamfered surrounds. A concave cornice runs along the top. The east end showcases a three-light window with intersecting tracery, and in the gable, there is a round window. The gable is finished with a solid corniced parapet that includes a niche and a cross at the apex.

Inside, the church is a single space with a panelled dado and a moulded dado rail, along with a flat ceiling. The interior is simple yet has pleasing proportions.
