Church of St Luke, Claremont Road, Newcastle upon Tyne - Newcastle upon Tyne

Completed in 1890 to designs by Oliver & Leeson, St Luke's has a short nave with south porch, paired transepts and a chancel with north vestry and south chapel. It is constructed of red brick with steeply pitched roofs of Welsh slate, stone window surrounds and a west belfry. A scheme of external repairs was completed in 2014 but a recent survey identified a number of areas at roof leveI that need attention to stop water ingress. Internal repairs are underway to bring the main body of the church back into use. Whilst works are undertaken, the adjoining parish hall is being used for worship.
