Wiltshire Record Society

The Wiltshire Record Society is a text publication society in Wiltshire, England, which edits and publishes historic documents concerned with the history of Wiltshire.

In 1937 Ralph Pugh was the chief mover in a proposal to found the records branch of the Wiltshire Archaeological and Natural History Society. The Records Branch was established in 1939, and in 1967 it became the Wiltshire Record Society, an independent organisation in its own right. However, the numbering of the volumes published has remained continuous, the last volume published by the Records Branch being number 21 and the first volume under the new regime being number 22. The books published by both have all been bound in pale blue cloth and have the same size and format.

The work of the Society is funded by the subscribing members, some of them being academic bodies and libraries, but most are private individuals. An annual general meeting is held in Wiltshire once a year, usually in June.

Since 1939, the Society and its predecessor the Records Branch have produced roughly one volume per year, the list of publications being as follows:
