Over the last six months, the Dartford Property Market has been flourishing. As soon as an estate agent’s ‘For Sale’ flag went up, neighbours would be checking out Rightmove to see the internal pictures and compare the asking price to their own home (go on ... admit you do that too – every Dartford homeowner does).

He did this by feudal law system and granted all the faithful nobles and aristocrats with land.
