Work is overseen, and volumes published, by the Institute of Historical Research of the University of London.
The then chairman of the Gloucestershire County History Trust, Sir Nicholas Mander, said in a news release in December 2010: "While the big red volumes are still at the heart of the Gloucestershire Victoria County History, we are keen to take our county history out to as many people as possible, through affordable publications, modern technology, and new ways of working."
The Trust has since initiated work on 3 further volumes: 14 (Yate and the Sodburys), 15 (Cheltenham and surrounding parishes) and 16 (Cirencester and area).
It is responsible for raising funds for the continuation of the county history.
