St Luke's Church, Preston, Gothic Revival church in Deepdale, England.

The sandstone structure features a six-bay nave with clerestory, north and south aisles, chancel, organ house, vestry, and a southwest steeple rising in five stages.

St Luke's Church opened on August 3, 1859, with architect Edwin Hugh Shellard completing the construction at a cost of £4,733 to accommodate 800 worshippers.

The building demonstrates the influence of Early English Gothic Revival architecture through its lancet windows, circular clerestory openings, and geometrical tracery patterns.

The Grade II listed building stands vacant after serving as a care facility, with submitted plans for conversion into residential apartments under consideration.

The church tower incorporates a broach spire decorated with two tiers of lucarnes and includes a stair turret positioned at the northwest corner.
