About Guildford
History
It is believed that Guildford was founded by Saxon settlers shortly after
Roman authority had been removed from Britain (which was c.410AD). The site
was likely chosen
because the Harrow Way (an ancient trackway that continues along Hog's Back)
crosses the River Wey at this point, via a ford. This probably gives rise
to the second half of Guildford's name. The root of the first
part is gold rather than society or meeting place. It has been suggested that
the gold may refer to golden flowers by the ford, or the golden sand, but
this is not certain. There is an old coaching Inn on the Epsom Road previously
called the 'Sanford Arms', which almost certainly derives from 'Sand Ford',
so this adds weight to the suggestion that 'Guildford' is a corruption of
'Gold Ford', referring to the very distinctive golden sand showing on the
banks of the River Wey where it cuts through the sandy outcrop just south
of the town.
In Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur, Guildford is identified
with Astolat of Arthurian renown. Guildford's model railway club, the Astolat
Model Railway Circle, and a local pub, the Astolat, are just a couple of the
modern day reminders of the legend to be found in the town.
From 978 Guildford was the location of the Royal Mint.
Alfred Atheling, son of King Ethelred II, had been living in Normandy in
France
during the Danish invasion of Saxon England. After Canute died, around 1040,
Alfred returned to England, where he was met and entertained in Guildford
by the Earl Godwine.Godwine handed him to Harold Harefoot's men, who blinded
and mutilated him to the extent that he died not long after.
Guildford Castle
Guildford castle may date back to Saxon times, if not much earlier.Its situation
overlooks the pass through the hills taken by the Pilgrims' Way, and also,
presumably, once overlooked the ancient ford across the Wey, thus giving a
key point of military control of this important East-West route way across
the country; just as Windsor Castle and the Tower of London once guarded the
Thames.
The statue of Archbishop George Abbot stands at the top of
Guildford High Street
The Friary Centre lies on the site of an old friary In the 21st Century
Guildford is a bustling English town, with a High Street paved with granite
setts (frequently referred to as cobbled), numerous shops and department stores.
It is a market town with the market being held on Fridays and Saturdays. A
farmers' market is usually held on the first Tuesday of each month. There
is a Tourist Information Office and several hotels including the historic
Angel Hotel which long served as a coaching stop on the main London to Portsmouth
stagecoach route. According to Channel Four Television's "The Best and
Worst Places to Live in the UK" TV show Guildford was the 9th best place
to live in Britain in 2006 but slipped to 12th position in 2007, largely due
to the pollution produced by the numerous cars found on the roads. Guildford
is the most attractive and safe shopping destination in the UK, according
to the Eve Prime Retail Survey 2004 and ranked 27th in the country overall.
Culture
Guildford has the most visited Art Gallery in
Surrey,
Guildford House Gallery, with over 120,000 visitors per annum. The Gallery
is situated in the High Street, in a 17th century Grade I Listed Town House
and is run by Guildford Borough Council. Its own art collection includes works
of Guildford and the surrounding area, and work by Guildford Artists, most
notably John Russell R.A. Also run by the borough Council is Guildford Museum.
The town's principal commercial theatre is the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre which
often shows productions before (and after) they have spent time in London's
West End. The Electric Theatre opened in 1997 to host performances by musicians
and amateur drama groups. It also hosts regular film, family and music festivals
as well as comedy and has a Riverside Cafe Bar and Terrace. Guildford also
has an Odeon cinema multiplex, which is as of June 2007 the only cinema in
the world showing digital 4K films to the public. Guildford Civic Hall was
the town's main arts and entertainment venue. It has been shut since January
2004, but is due to be replaced.
Stoke Park is the venue for both the Guilfest music festival during the summer
and the Surrey County Show (agricultural and general) on the last bank holiday
Monday in May. Previous to 2007, the Ambient Picnic was held in Shalford Park,
by the River Wey
