I expect the OP is already aware of them, but the Nuffield studies are a terrific starting point.

I offer the following suggestions for General Elections before 1945:
T. Lloyd, The General Election of 1880, Oxford University Press, 1968. A.K. Russell, Liberal Landslide: The General Election of 1906, David and Charles, 1973. N. Blewitt, The Peers, The Parties and the People: The General Elections of 1910, University of Toronto Press, 1972. A. Thorpe, The British General Election of 1931, Clarendon Press, 1991. T. Stannage, Baldwin Thwarts the Opposition: The British General Election of 1935, Croom Helm, 1980.
For by-elections:
T.G. Otte and P. Readman (eds.), By-Elections in British Politics, 1832-1914, Boydell Press, 2013. C. Cook and J. Ramsden, By-Elections in British Politics, Macmillan, 1973.
But my number one pick for a good read is:
C. Cook, The Age of Alignment: Electoral Politics in Britain 1922-1929, Macmillan, 1975.

For those looking for a longer perspective, Hanham's Elections and Party Management: Politics in the time of Disraeli and Gladstone, is excellent.

I've got to get 45, 51, 79 and 83 to complete my Nuffield studies collection. Not read the Lloyd on 1880 - will have to look out for that

The Tanner is a superb book. If I remember rightly, he died very young. One of the best books on the period as a whole I think is Martin Pugh "The making of modern British politics" which covers 1867 to 1939
