St Luke's Church is a Church of England parish church in Maidenhead in the English county of Berkshire.

History

St Luke's Church was consecrated in 1866 by William Wilberforce. At a cost of £3500, it was designed by architect George Row Clarke of London, and built by James Griffiths of Eldersfield. ^[1] A tower was added in 1869, and then a spire was built in 1894.

The Church today

The church building remains the largest church in Maidenhead, and as a result has been used for the recording of Songs of Praise on two occasions. Recent alterations to the church include new glazed entrance doors, a new servery at the west end, refurbished kitchen and toilets, and new vestry and office created in the former Parish Centre. ^[1]

Ministry team

The Vicar since June 2011 is the Revd Sally Lynch. She is assisted by the Revd Phyl Sopp, and Revd Terrie Robinson.
