St Luke's Church, Lower Whitley

St Luke's Church features brown brick walls with sandstone elements and a grey slate roof topped by a stone bell turret with a slate spire.

The church originated as a chapel of ease in Great Budworth parish and underwent reconstruction in the late 16th century due to its deteriorated condition.

The church maintains its role as one of three churches in the parish, conducting regular services alongside St Peter and St Michael and All Angels.

The building contains original 17th-century pews with decorative ends, panels, and ball finials, plus stained glass windows from the 1860s.

A sundial from the mid-18th century stands in the churchyard, accompanied by a First World War memorial lychgate integrated with a clock.
