Hello Doris.

I suggested Lavinia Road as it sounds more likely and with older writing S and L can look quite similar. There is a Lavinia Road in Dartford too.
The only way of checking occupants for this time is to look at the electoral register, which obviously in 1938 would show people over 21. Records will be at the nearst main library. You have to search these in person or ask the staff to do a check for which they might charge.

Be aware there were no electoral registers taken during the war.

Worth a try I'd say. You might also try the local papers at the library though might not be any notices if a "paupers" funeral.
I would google search the cemetary firtst as you might find details of what services they offer re. looking for burials.

If age at death is accurate....birth more likely to be 1915....certainly no later than JFM 1916

If, as you say, she is in a pauper's grave, there won't be headstone, so no chance of learning her DOB.
