Guildford [ˈɡɪlfərd] ist die Hauptstadt der historischen Grafschaft Surrey in England und heute sowohl zentraler Verwaltungssitz für die Region Südostengland als auch Sitz des Borough of Guildford.Im Jahre 2001 hatte Guildford 66.773 Einwohner. Da der Ort in einer sehr sandigen Umgebung liegt, ist Guildford wahrscheinlich nach einer „goldenen“, also sandigen Furt (englisch ford = Furt) im Fluss Wey benannt worden, die zur Zeit der Angelsachsen existiert haben soll.
