St Luke's Church, Holmes Chapel, Gothic church in Holmes Chapel, England
The four-bay nave church features a sandstone tower with gargoyles at each corner and north and south aisles extending along its length.
Built around 1430, St Luke's Church demonstrates the medieval construction techniques with its timber-framed structure and perpendicular sandstone tower design.
The interior contains oak-paneled galleries from 1705 and stained glass windows designed by Horatio Walter Lonsdale in the east section from 1921.
The church maintains regular Anglican services under the Diocese of Chester and provides space for community gatherings at the junction of A50 and A535 roads.
The revealed timber roof displays original 15th-century craftsmanship, while the churchyard extension includes a World War I soldier memorial grave.
