Russell House, High St

In the 18th century the Russell family worked here as artists and booksellers at the "Sign of the Bible" and produced an early history of Guildford. The birthplace of the portraitist John Russell R.A. (1745-1806) is commemorated by a blue plaque at first floor level. His father, also called John, was a stationer at the "Sign of the Bible", and was mayor of Guildford four times.
