St Peter

The chapel continued to serve the village for the next 150 years until 1890 when Revd Vincent Higgins wanted a replacement church which would be larger to serve a population expanding with the opening of collieries and chemical works.

The church, apart from the chancel, was rebuilt in 1902-3 by Naylor & Sale of Derby, although a projected northwest tower was never constructed. It was rebuilt in brick with stone dressings, a style more often found in nonconformist chapels than Anglican churches.
