St. Mary the Virgin Church in Mortlake High Street is approximately 4 to 5 minutes walk from Mortlake railway station. If leaving the station from the platform where trains goto onto to London Waterloo, exit the station through the exit (ie not over the bridge). If leaving from the station from the platform for trains to Richmond, either exit the station and turn left immediately in Sheen Lane and cross over the railway tracks or from the platform cross over the railway tracks via the bridge.

Then walk straight on down Sheen Lane with Mortlake Green on your left towards the roundabout. Turn right at the roundabout into Mortlake High Street. Continue straight on, the church is on your right.

Landmarks include, at the exit of the station, there is Sheen Lane Builders Merchants Ltd (large stocks of wood), with on the other side of the road, the Mortlake Station Garage. Carrying on down Sheen Lane, on the right is the Railway Bar. Turning right into Mortlake High Street, immediately on entering it is the Royal Mail sorting office and then Mortlake Business Centre/Vineyard Heights and then the Claude Butler pub.
