Summary[edit]

Description
English: St. Luke's Anglican Church is part of the Anglican Parish of Woodstock, which was formed in 1786. The first church was erected in 1804 or 1085 near the north end of the cemetery which surrounds the present church (Christ Church) in Lower Woodstock. St. Luke's is the third church built on this site and was consecrated on Feb. 2, 1883, by Bishop John Medley. It's ecclesiastical Carpenter Gothic architecture is evident in such details as the central tower on the front facade and the Gothic arch windows. The exterior is in original form, with the exception of a recently added access ramp. Inside, the sanctuary has undergone minor modifications including electric lighting and additional stained-glass windows. An accessible washroom was added in 2019 in the north foyer. The interior decor, including the woodwork and spatial configuration remains intact. Notable are the black oak and walnut pews and altar area, and the ornamental Casavant organ pipes.
