St. Luke's Church, Nottingham
St. Luke's Church, Nottingham, was a Church of England church in Nottingham at the junction of Carlton Road and St. Luke's Road near Sneinton between 1862 and 1923. History It was created out of the parish of St. Mary's Church, Nottingham, through the impetus of the vicar of St. Mary's, Joshua William Brooks. The trustees of St. Luke's were Thomas Adams, Lace Manufacturer, Lieutenant Colonel Robert Holden, of Nuthall Temple, Revd. Edmund Hollond and Revd. Charles Bridges. The foundation stone was laid on 2 July 1861. In October 1862, the Commissioners' architect checking on the building declared it unsafe. The roof was too heavy and the walls had bowed out.

Church Of England
The Church of England (C of E) is the established Christian church in England and the mother church of the international Anglican Communion. It traces its history to the Christian church recorded as existing in the Roman province of Britain by the 3rd century and to the 6th-century Gregorian mission to Kent led by Augustine of Canterbury. The English church renounced papal authority in 1534 when Henry VIII failed to secure a papal annulment of his marriage to Catherine of Aragon. The English Reformation accelerated under Edward VI's regents, before a brief restoration of papal authority under Queen Mary I and King Philip. The Act of Supremacy 1558 renewed the breach, and the Elizabethan Settlement charted a course enabling the English church to describe itself as both Reformed and Catholic. In the earlier phase of the English Reformation there were both Roman Catholic martyrs and radical Protestant martyrs. The later phases saw the Penal Laws punish Ro ...

Former Church Of England Church Buildings
A former is an object, such as a template, gauge or cutting die, which is used to form something such as a boat's hull. Typically, a former gives shape to a structure that may have complex curvature. A former may become an integral part of the finished structure, as in an aircraft fuselage, or it may be removable, being using in the construction process and then discarded or re-used. Aircraft formers Formers are used in the construction of aircraft fuselage, of which a typical fuselage has a series from the nose to the empennage, typically perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. The primary purpose of formers is to establish the shape of the fuselage and reduce the column length of stringers to prevent instability. Formers are typically attached to longerons, which support the skin of the aircraft. The "former-and-longeron" technique (also called stations and stringers) was adopted from boat construction, and was typical of light aircraft built until the ad ...
