A Wood correspondent wrote:  In A History of West Hill Hospital there is a map of Estates belonging to Parish of Dartford, date 1826, it shows Waterside.  Today this is called Hythe St.  Further along Waterside, is shown 'Mr Halls Factory' which later became J & E Halls and until twenty years ago employed several hundred workers.  It has since shrunk to a just a handful.  I vaguely recall cottages and a very attractive building which I was told had been a public house many years previous.  This was part of Halls offices.  Waterside is a street along side the river Darent.  Halls Row is probably long since gone and would have been near the station close to J&E Hall's engineering works.
