Guildford Cathedral crowns Stag Hill above the Surrey town, one of only a handful of Anglican cathedrals built in England during the twentieth century. Designed by Edward Maufe and consecrated in 1961, it presents a spare, dignified brick exterior and a light-filled interior of pale stone and slender columns in a modern interpretation of Gothic. Its foundations were partly funded by donors who bought and signed individual bricks. A golden angel weathervane tops the tower.
