Welcome to Mortlake

Mortlake is a charming suburban district located in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. It is situated on the south bank of the River Thames, between Kew and Barnes. Mortlake is known for its picturesque riverside location, historic landmarks, and green spaces. The area is home to several notable attractions, including the Mortlake Brewery, the Mortlake Crematorium, and the Mortlake Tapestry Works. The district is also famous for its rowing history, with the University of London Boat Club and the Mortlake Anglian and Alpha Boat Club both based in the area.

One of the most significant landmarks in Mortlake is the Mortlake Brewery, which was established in 1487 and is one of the oldest breweries in the country. The brewery was originally owned by the Stag Brewery Company, which was later acquired by the Watney Combe Reid Brewery. The brewery was closed in 2005, and the site was redeveloped into luxury apartments. Another notable landmark in Mortlake is the Mortlake Crematorium, which was opened in 1939 and is one of the busiest crematoria in London. The crematorium is known for its beautiful gardens and peaceful surroundings, making it a popular place for visitors to pay their respects to loved ones.

Mortlake is also home to several green spaces, including the Mortlake Green and the Mortlake Cemetery. The Mortlake Green is a small park located in the heart of the district, which is popular with families and dog walkers. The park features a children's playground, a basketball court, and a small pond. The Mortlake Cemetery is a historic burial ground that dates back to the 19th century. The cemetery is known for its beautiful Victorian architecture and is the final resting place of several notable figures, including the artist J.M.W. Turner. Overall, Mortlake is a charming and historic district that offers a unique blend of riverside living, green spaces, and cultural landmarks.
