The
View
Welcome to our News and Blog page.
Here you will hopefully find plenty to enjoy as we share information and ideas, prompted by what is happening at The County Club or in and around Guildford.
Why the View?
Well, the bay windows on the first and second floors have been used to inspire some of the most spectacular paintings and photographs of the iconic Guildford High Street, across the setts (never call them cobbles!), to the famous Guild Hall clock and beyond, towards the Wey and the grassy splendour of The Mount.
We are always delighted to hear opinions about our blogs, so please do not be shy, just let us know what you think.
