List of public art in Surrey

Public art in Surrey


This list comprises works of public art on permanent display in an outdoor public space in the county of Surrey, England. UK. For brevity this does not include markers and milestones, parts of buildings or ornamental features to main bridges, stained glass and other artistic works attached to places of worship. Art at Brookwood cemetery, the UK's most populous, are not listed here as its land is open to those paying their respects but private.

Indoor artworks are excluded from this list, including in the county's 11 district halls, at its University, schools and colleges, community halls and in the art museums and galleries in Surrey category. Community project millennial tapestries and embroideries are on public display in visitor centres at Dunsfold, Holmbury St Mary and Sunbury-on-Thames. Clock towers (including clock housings on metal posts) are excluded from the list such as in Abinger Hammer (although its colourful blacksmith sculpture striking a bell overhangs a public road), Bisley, Cobham, Epsom, and Sunbury. Wikipedia's list of Grade I listed buildings in Surrey is a government-backed list of the top historical and architectural structures and ruins including the somewhat intact castles: Farnham, Guildford and Reigate. Moved architecture/relics such as part of the Leptis Magna (Roman city) ruins and some fountains have been included, lacking practical purposes.
