Hampshire

Status: Complete but undergoing revision, 5 volumes published

Hampshire Volume I was the very first VCH red volume to be completed, published on 1st January 1900.  The county set was completed in four further volumes published in 1903, 1905, 1911 and 1912.

Nearly a century after the county was completed in 2007, a group of interested organizations came together to seek to revise and update the VCH Hampshire volumes. These partners included Hampshire County Council, the Hampshire Archives Trust, the Hampshire Field Club and Archaeological Society, and the University of Winchester.  The new VCH Hampshire intends to update the original volumes and add topics including local government, public services, economy and society, migration, sport and recreation. The first three volumes of the new series will be about Basingstoke and its surrounding area.
