a village in the Kingston parliamentary division of Surrey, England, on the Thames, 62 m. W. of London. Pop. of parish, which includes East Sheen (1901), 7774. It has been associated with the Oxford and Cambridge boat-race since 1845, the race finishing here.

From the early part of the 17th century until after the civil wars Mortlake was celebrated for a manufacture of tapestry.
