St Luke's Church, Farnworth, Anglican church in Farnworth, England
St Luke's Church features red sandstone construction with a slate roof, incorporating a western tower and multiple side aisles throughout its structure.
The church originated in the 12th century as St Wilfrid's Chapel and received its current dedication to St Luke in 1859 upon joining Liverpool diocese.
The church contains seven hatchments related to the Bold family and stained glass windows created by the renowned Morris & Co workshop.
The church conducts a Sunday Club at 10:30 AM and JAM Club at 3 PM on the second Sunday, offering activities for children aged 4 to 11.
A local legend tells of a blacksmith who defeated a griffin near the church grounds, leading to the adoption of this creature in the Bold family name.
