This little cul-de-sac of terraced houses is immediately west of Old Mortlake Burial Ground which is just over the fence to the left.

Not a pub now and it has probably been converted to houses for some time, but the original signage has, sensibly, been kept and is well maintained. Charrington's Brewery in the City was taken over by Whitbread in the early fifties, but they maintained the 'Charrington's IPA' name for some years.

The old 'Queen's Arms' - now a private dwelling - stands at the corner of Queen's Road and Prince's Road, Mortlake. Much of the external tiling of the old Charrington's pub has been retained - in a neighbourhood of former artisans' cottages. The date 1757 commemorates the founding of the Anchor Brewery in the Mile End Road - a business which John Charrington bought into a few years later http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charrington_Brewery The anchor panel faces Prince's Road. The pub's name survives on a tiled panel round the corner in Queen's Road http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2964839

The old 'Queen's Arms' - now a private dwelling - stands at the corner of Queen's Road and Prince's Road, Mortlake. Much of the external tiling of the old Charrington's pub has been retained - in a neighbourhood of former artisans' cottages. The pub name appears in this panel on an east-facing wall in Queen's Road. Another panel, just round the corner in Prince's Road, is shown here: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2964831

Looking in the Up direction, the other footbridge can be seen; behind it and on the right is the Mortlake Old Burial Ground.

The bus stand at the terminus of the 209 route, seen from a footbridge across the Richmond-Barnes railway line. Beyond is the junction with Avondale Road.

Approaching Mortlake station from the east, the railway is flanked by two narrow streets running parallel to it. South Worple Way is built up only on its south side, North Worple Way only on its north side. In order to get a view over the high wall, I held the camera above my head, at full stretch.

Old Mortlake Burial Ground was opened in 1887. Its most notable occupants are Edwin Chadwick, Chief Officer of the Poor Law Commission from 1834 to 1854, whose work led to the creation of the Magnificent Seven Cemeteries, and the son and sister-in-law of Charles Dickens.
