Guildford is the county town of Surrey, but not the administrative centre. It is the economic and cultural centre of the whole of West Surrey.

Guildford's High Street, which runs steeply down to the River Wey, has maintained its mellow Georgian character over the centuries. Though the frontages are mostly Georgian, they often conceal much older buildings behind. The most impressive of these is the Guildhall, which has a 17th century facade added to a Tudor building.

Guildford's most imposing building is its modern cathedral, which occupies a commanding position on Stag Hill. The University of Surrey occupies two sites, one on Stag Hill near the cathedral and the other north-west of the town.

Guildford Castle started out as a simple Norman motte and bailey. Henry II later replaced the wooden defences with stone during the 12th century. As the only royal castle in Surrey it soon became the centre for administration and justice, and its keep was used as the county gaol. Under Henry III it became one of the most luxurious royal residences in England but after his death it quickly fell into decline. Today its surroundings have been transformed into a beautifully landscaped park. Its bleak ruins standing on a high mound, that provides excellent views across the surrey countryside. There is a shop and a small exhibition in the base of the tower.

The River Wey, which runs through the centre of the city, was once a commercial waterway with locks built circa 1653, but now only used by pleasure craft. An 17th century tread-wheel crane, used to load and unload barges on the river, once stood close to the town bridge. It is now displayed on the wharf at Millbrook.
