- Two volumes were produced for the county in the early years of the 20th century. The project was relaunched, in collaboration with Somerset County Council, with a third volume issued in 1974. Although VCH Somerset covers all of the historic county, no work has yet been undertaken on the areas transferred to Avon and which now form the unitary authorities of Bath and North East Somerset and North Somerset. Eleven red books have been published to date with the twelfth, describing part of Carhampton hundred, including the medieval borough of Dunster and the seaside resort of Minehead will be published soon. Work on the subsequent volume, dealing with the county town of Taunton and its surrounding parishes is already under way.
