Very very belatedly, but I think the image is of here
https://maps.app.goo.gl/hJtsJSadly the small house got developed/extended a few years ago, so that it now follows the edge of that patch of grass.
Think the tree on the left is one of a line separating Lower Mortlake Road from the A316
(You were pretty close with your original guess)

Hows about another one?
This is apparently pretty famous, it inspired the naming of a band of the same name, and has been copied in other locations as recently as 2006. A request was even published in the Times in April 1974 to uncover the meaning, but definitive answers were not forthcoming....maybe its just that cats like plain crisps :)
It seems the phrase was first seen in the kitchen of a series of squats in Grosvenor Rd in Richmond. The phrase became the motto for the squatters and even made it onto their flag, and eventually made it outside to the roundabout in question.
The book just states its in Richmond somewhere, and I have seen mention online that it was maybe near Kew Road and/or near the swimming baths. I'm not familiar with the area, but this is the only possible lead I have so far.

Again remember over 40 years have passed. There is a door in the wall in the current image that is not in the original, but otherwise its looks pretty similar, the door could easily have been added later. Unlike the previous one I posted, this was there for along time, so I'm more hopeful more people would have seen it, I don't suppose anyone recalls where it was located exactly do you?
@HarmanMogul you weren't over in Richmond in the 70's on your Cedric Clayson were you :)
Any confirmation of the location gratefully received, or any other suggestions welcome :)
