Church History

St Luke's church was built of variously coloured bricks, from designs by Mr GT Robinson, of Leamington, and consisted of an apsidal chancel, nave, aisles and side chapel, a long western porch or cloister extending the whole width of the church and uniting it with a tower and spire, 170 feet in height. An organ was introduced in 1884, and a lady chapel added in 1920.
