PD was written after SD, but is set before it.
In SD, there is a piece that explains that in the winter holidays, the Swallows and Amazons made up a story about Peter duck and the finding of the treasure. I suppose AR wrote SD and then thought, 'Hey this Peter Duck idea would make a good book on it's own.'
I usually read PD before SD, but that is just my personal preference.
