Holy Trinity Church Guildford
High Street, Guildford, Surrey, GU1 3HJ
Holy Trinity was built in the 1750s, after the medieval church fell down in 1740. It is a simple Palladian church, a popular style at the time, inspired by Roman architecture. It makes a distinctive landmark on Guildford High Street. The first church was probably built around 950 when the High Street was laid out to make Guildford into a town. The east end was added in 1888 to make the church bigger, for a different style of worship.
The church includes a very late medieval chantry chapel, the splendid Renaissance tomb of an archbishop of Canterbury, a Georgian pulpit, a regimental chapel, Arts & Crafts decorative panels and a modern icon and embroideries.
