Address: Millmead, Guildford GU2 4BE
Location
Millmead Lock is located along the River Wey, just outside Guildford town centre. It's a quiet place, with open green areas great for picnics. There are plenty of benches around this location, with views of the picturesque lock and river.
During your visit, you could also visit The Britannia pub, adjacent to the Millmead car park.
Parking
The Millmead Car Park is located right next to the River Wey. It's pay and display, with a maximum stay of 2 hours. There are around 30 spaces, making it rather small, but I have always been able to find a place to park.
An alternative place to park is the "Portsmouth Road Car Park," located 200 metres away, just down the road.
Parking is free for visitors with a blue badge.
Accessibility
With plenty of benches and places to rest, Millmead Lock is a great place to visit for people with POTS, or any other condition that makes walking long distances a challenge. The car park is right next to the river, so there is very little distance needed to travel.
The paths are level and the bridge across the river (pictured below) is suitable for wheelchair users. The car park is tight, so this could be an added difficulty for some visitors.
Conclusion
Overall, Millmead Lock is a great place to visit. With its open space and quiet location, the lock is an ideal picnic spot to get away from the busyness of Guildford town centre.
