Saint Luke's originated in services held at the school of Saint Paul's, Bow Common, from 1865. The school was situated to the south of the parish of Holy Trinity, Tredegar Square, in a poor area full of houses for the working classes. Construction of a permanent church began in 1868 and consecration took place in October 1869. The architect was A.W.Blomfield.

During the Second World War, Saint Luke's was used by the congregations of two bombed churches: Saint Paul's, Bow Common (P93/PAU1) and Saint John's, Halley Street (P93/JN1). The parish was amalgamated with Saint Paul, Bow Common, in July 1951. From July 1944 to July 1951 the baptismal registers of Saint Luke's include entries for Saint Paul's, the Saint Luke's baptismal registers being continued in use for the united parish from July 1951 to July 1958. From July 1951 to July 1958 the marriage registers of Saint Luke's were used for the united parish. All the registers from Saint Luke's were closed in July 1958 when the congregation of the united parish of Saint Paul, Bow Common, and Saint Luke.
