Warwickshire

Status: Complete - 8 volumes produced

Warwickshire volumes appeared in 1904 and 1908, but no more were published until in 1935 when the county was selected for a pilot project. Subventions from the county and borough councils allowed the appointment of Philip Styles in 1937 as part-time topographical editor, initially to complete two volumes on the county. Five volumes followed and in 1969 the series was completed in eight volumes. Volume VII in the series was devoted to Birmingham. Only volume VIII, on Coventry and Warwick, is still in print. Plans are in an embryonic state to resume work on Birmingham.
