Location:
For many visitors approaching Guildford, the county town of Surrey, their first view is of the 20th-century red-brick cathedral and its golden angel weather-vane, perched high on Stag Hill where it overlooks the town and the university campus, dominating the surrounding landscape.
The town itself is situated on the banks of the River Wey, occupying a natural gap in the North Downs that provides excellent road and rail connections to the South East of England. Although now used mainly for pleasure, the Wey Navigation and links to the Basingstoke Canal once afforded Guildford easy access to England's extensive canal network, providing routes to London and further afield. Although the wharfs and warehouses no longer operate, parts of the waterfront have been preserved, offering a glimpse into the town's not-so-distant past.
Located equidistant from London and Portsmouth, the town gained early importance as a staging post for travellers, civilian and military, as well as fulfilling its local role as the regional market place, the occasional seat of the County Assizes, and location of a Royal hunting lodge.
In modern times the town has retained its importance as a communication hub and market town, and gained a contemporary cathedral, modern university, world-class sports facilities and extensive shopping and commercial developments.
The town centre's cobbled high street is home to large department stores and small local boutiques alike. Warwicks Bench Road, White Lane and Guildown Road are picturesque while Charlotteville and Onslow Village prove popular. Nearby Pewley Down offers great walking and cycling routes over the Surrey Hills to Newland's Corner and Chantry Wood. Guildford benefits from a choice of fantastic schools while excellent commuter links into London.
