St Luke, Blakenhall - Wolverhampton, City of
Gothic Revival church by GT Robinson of Leamington in polychromatic brickwork erected in 1860. The decorated spire is a local landmark in the Blakenhall area. Closed as a church in 2017 the building became an antiques centre but it is now a church again. Rainwater goods are in very poor condition, with vegetation or blocked or broken, the resulting leaks affect the brickwork and wall structure. Most roofs have slipped or broken slates, lead flashings have been stolen leading to rain damage internally. Fruiting bodies implying dry rot are present. Stolen pews, statuary and organ.
