History

The club was founded in 1860 and is affiliated to British Rowing. The original boathouse was built in 1897 near Prebends Bridge and DARC shared the facilities with St Leonard's School Boat Club.[2]

In 1969 DARC moved to its present boathouse site at Green Lane.[2]

On 14 September 2007 the boathouse was rebuilt.[3]

The club has produced multiple British champions.
