Dartford Cricket Club is one of the oldest cricket clubs in England with origins which date from the early 18th century, perhaps earlier. The earliest known match involving a team from Dartford took place in 1722, against London,[1] but the club's own website says it was formally established in 1727.[2] The club is still in existence and now plays in the Kent Cricket League.
