About

Mortlake sits on the northern bank of the Thames, characterised by its historic brewery site and a stretch of riverside pubs. The area retains a quiet, village-like atmosphere with its high street of independent shops and residential streets leading up from the water. It is home to the finish line of the annual Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race, a significant local event that draws crowds to the riverbank each spring.

Immediately to the south, across Barnes Bridge, lies South Barnes. This residential neighbourhood is defined by its proximity to the London Wetland Centre, a major wildlife reserve created from former reservoirs. The area features large Victorian and Edwardian houses along tree-lined avenues, with a distinct sense of separation from the busier urban centres. Common land and sports fields contribute to its green, spacious feel.
