Construction of the church started in 1791 and it was consecrated on 9 July 1791 by the Bishop of Lichfield, James Cornwallis. It was enlarged in 1837 when capacity was double to accommodate 300 people, again in 1851 when the chancel and tower were added by Henry Isaac Stevens, and restored in 1869 by Giles and Brookhouse, when a north aisle was added, the nave roof was raised and the church re-roofed. The church is in a joint ecclesiastical parish with St Alkmund's Church, Duffield, being formerly within Duffield Frith. St Paul's is within the Conservative Evangelical tradition of the Church of England. As a parish that rejects the leadership/ordination of women, it receives alternative episcopal oversight from the Bishop of Maidstone (currently Rod Thomas).

St Peter’s Park, which was given to the village by Thomas Bates in 1902, provides excellent sporting facilities. The sports pavilion was erected in 1966, funded by money raised locally.

On this site, Thomas Tempest, 1768-1832, a corn miller developed an extensive paper mill. The building which survives is now a dwelling. It is built of coursed stone and was erected c.1800. It is similar in design to an Arkwright generation cotton spinning mill, long and relatively narrow. Peckwash Mill was powered by water from the river Derwent and this was channelled into a series of goyts to drive several water wheels located within the mill structure itself, and on the east side. Subsequently, two turbines housed in a separate building replaced the water wheels. This building, now a garage, has an eastern bay of brick-arched and iron fire-proof construction. Steam power was introduced to the site c.1890 and the large brick chimney which still dominates the area was built at this time.
