This was the Derbyshire and Staffordshire line, the station opening in 1878. In 1953 it was closed to passengers and in 1962 to goods. This was quite a substantial station. The line then continued west to Derby Friargate and on to Burton upon Trent. East it went to West Hallam and Nottingham Victoria and on this station a shopping centre now stands.

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).
