Full Description

St Luke's church was built piecemeal in the grounds of Emily Jackson House between 1903 and 1958 as a daughter church of St Mary's Kippington, to replace a temporary meeting house in Granville road. It did not become an independent church until 1998, when various improvements to the church offices were also added (designed by Malcolm Green). It has a two storey nave with single-storey side aisles, wide gable entrance porch and lobby at west end, and projecting gabled transept. Of red brick construction with concrete tiles. Plain brick pilasters and buttresses divide the bays. Two and three-light lancet windows in the Gothick style, with stone mullions and surrounds. Transept and east end have brick piers at corners, with stone caps. Its Jacobean pulpit was originally at Lynsted. (1)
