Rochester is a town and former city in the county of Kent, England. It is at the lowest bridging point of the River Medway about 30 miles (48 km) from London. The town was for many years the favourite of Charles Dickens, who lived nearby at Gads Hill Place, Higham, and who based many of his novels in the area. The Diocese of Rochester, the second oldest in England, is based at Rochester Cathedral, and was responsible for the founding of King's School in 604 AD, which is the second oldest school in the world. Its economy is primarily retail-based, situated in the historic part of this town.[1]
