Background

History

Winmarleigh is a village in Lancashire. Historically, it was part of the ecclesiastical parish of Garstang and Winmarleigh's villagers would have worshipped at the parish church of St Helen, Churchtown. St Luke's was built in 1875–1876 by the Lancaster-based firm of architects Paley and Austin. Located to the south of the village, the church was paid for by Lord Winmarleigh. It was enlarged in 1887 by the same architects, who added a north aisle and a vestry.

Architecture

St Luke's is constructed of sandstone rubble and has a roof of red tiles. Its plan consists of a nave, a chancel, a porch to the south, and a chapel and a vestry to the north. There is no tower, but there is a wooden bell-cote with a spire between the nave and chancel. The church incorporates elements of Decorated and Perpendicular styles.
