Bishop of Guildford
The Bishop of Guildford is the Ordinary of the Church of England Diocese of Guildford in the Province of Canterbury.
The title had first appeared as a suffragan see in the Diocese of Winchester in 1874. The Bishop suffragan of Guildford assisted the Bishop of Winchester in overseeing that diocese. Under George V, the Diocese of Guildford was created out of the north-eastern part of the Diocese of Winchester in 1927.
The diocese covers the western half of the County of Surrey. The see is in the town of Guildford where the seat is located at the Cathedral Church of the Holy Spirit which was built as a cathedral from 1936 to 1965. The bishop's residence is Willow Grange, Jacobs Well — to the north of Guildford.
The immediate past incumbent bishop was Andrew Watson, 10th Bishop of Guildford, from the confirmation of his election on 24 November 2014, until his death 3 March 2026 of pancreatic cancer.
Among those who have served as assistant bishops of the diocese have been:
