Riverside Mills, Dartford established by the London Paper Mills Company in 1889. A new mill was built close to Dartford Creek with five paper machines. It produced approximately 250 tons of paper per week. The mills were taken over by Reeds in 1909 with an emphasis on the production of high-grade printing papers and production doubled to over 400 tons a week. The mills employed about 500 people in the 1930s producing special paper for photographic printing, office paper, envelopes and stationery.
