- River_Darent comment "The Darent is a Kentish tributary of the River Thames. The landscapes of the valley of the River Darent were painted in a visionary manner by the early Victorian artist Samuel Palmer. 'Darenth' is frequently found in the spelling of the river's name in older books and maps. Bartholomew's Gazetteer (1951) demonstrates that Darent means "clear water" and separately explains the other name. Considering that the Darent runs on a bed of chalk and its springs rise through chalk, this is not surprising. Darenth Parish (through which the river flows) derives from a Celtic phrase 'stream where oak-trees grow' (Irish: "dair" = 'oak-tree', "abha" = river )(compare e.g."Derwent") The confusion is excusable but the "stream where the oak trees grow" is the Darent ." external.

'Darenth' is frequently found in the spelling of the river's name in older books and maps. Bartholomew's Gazetteer (1951) demonstrates that Darent means "clear water" and separately explains the other name.

Fed by springs from the greensand hills south of Westerham in Kent and below Limpsfield Chart in Surrey it flows 21 miles (34 km) east then north by Otford and Shoreham, past the castle and the ruined Roman villa at Lullingstone, then by Eynsford, Farningham, Horton Kirby, South Darenth, Sutton-at-Hone, Darenth, and eventually to Dartford whence it proceeds a final two miles as a tidal estuary until it drops into the Thames "Long Reach". North of Dartford the Darent is tidal and, just before entering the Thames, receives the waters of the River Cray at Dartford & Crayford Marshes where the rivers form administrative boundaries between Greater London and Kent, (specifically, the London Borough of Bexley and the Kentish borough of Dartford). The Darent enters Thames Long Reach to the East of Crayford Ness. Kent County Council signposted a 19ml way along the Darent between the Greensand Hills above Sevenoaks and the Thames. and named it The Darent Valley Path. The route receives no [obvious] attention from councils or 'focus' groups although all or part is used by joggers, cyclists, [dog] walkers and curious adventurers, availing of The Darent Valley Path to access or view the river's amenities, such as they are. In the tidal section, This lack of attention is currently (2016) being addressed by a group of concerned locals "Friends of Dartford and Crayford Creeks". As of mid-2016 a Trust is been formed to further the regeneration and give formal recognition to the protyection of thios valuable public amenity." external.
