Mortlake High Street
Looking east, with the brewery, on its riverside site, on the left. As High Streets go, this has got to be one of the dreariest, with very few shops and just one pub. Nearby you can find Tinderbox Alley, Vineyard Path and Tapestry Court, whose names suggest a more interesting past. But on the ground, there are few traces of it: the parish church, a few Georgian houses, some converted industrial buildings along the riverside. The brewers Phillips and Wigan had demolished much of the old riverside village by the time the brewery was built, in 1869.
These days the local shopping centre - 'Sheen shops' - starts round the corner in Sheen Lane, but extends on a larger scale along Upper Richmond Road West. The railway station which serves it is still known as 'Mortlake' - a fact which surprises people unfamiliar with the area.
It has to be said that this is a district where place names have a tendency to wander. Richmond was known as Sheen up until about 1500, when Henry VII built a new palace there. A hamlet about a mile south of Mortlake became known as East Sheen, but the name later attached itself to the suburb which grew up along the Upper Richmond Road. These days the 'East' is frequently forgotten, and the place is known simply as Sheen.

Flooded Thames, Bull's Alley
Normally a small path runs beside the river, in front of the houses (on the right) towards Barnes Bridge. It also should lead right to Chiswick Bridge (in front of a Brewery).
The benches and tree is close to where the river edge should be.

Located beside the former Stag Brewery, at Mortlake. Rail tracks can be seen crossing the path, at this point, but the wall, which lies just out of picture to the right, shows no recent access from within the brewery site.
