The map also shows that permit holders have no limit in the two-hour and four-hour bays, so those concessions are not general free parking.

Guildford Limits, Permit Bays and Blue Badge Concessions
Guildford’s on-street parking map distinguishes two-hour bays, four-hour bays and bays with no limit; the two-hour and four-hour categories show no limit for permit holders (guildford.gov.uk). A permit-only concession therefore belongs to the relevant permit holders rather than to every driver using the street.
