St Matthew's Church, Gothic Revival church in Buckley, Wales.

St Matthew's Church features a three-stage west tower, clerestory windows, and ornate wooden furnishings designed by Douglas and Minshull.

The church, completed in 1905 by architect John Oates, became the first Welsh church to receive support from the Church Building Act of 1818.

The interior contains murals depicting beatitudes and stained glass works created by artists Henry Holiday and C. Ford Whitcombe.

Located at Church Road in Buckley at 159.8 meters elevation, the church maintains regular services under the leadership of Reverend Canon A S Jones.

The church houses eight bells cast in 1902 and includes a timber-framed lychgate from 1901 alongside a Calvary memorial from 1921.
