Rolling Stones History Tour

Rolling Stones History Tour: Dartford Sites

Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were born and raised in Dartford, Kent. I traveled to Dartford using the same trains they would later use as teens to get back and forth from London. As I sat there on the train, I imagined a time some 40 years ago when one of them might have been a fellow passenger! Once in Dartford, the first place I wanted to see was where it all began:

Livingstone Hospital Wentworth School

were both born here in 1943.
