St Paul's Church, Little Eaton is a Grade II listed [1] parish church in the Church of England in Little Eaton, Derbyshire. [2]
Construction of the church started in 1791 and it was consecrated on 9 July 1791 by the Bishop of Lichfield, James Cornwallis. [3] It was enlarged in 1837 when capacity was double to accommodate 300 people, [4] 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. [5]
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). [6]
An organ chamber was constructed in 1880, and a pipe organ by Alfred Kirkland was installed in 1905. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register. [7]
