"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867

No Problem. As a publicly funded Quango I can't see why all their papers aren't automatically put on line. The reports are very useful to a few with specialist interests and of limited commerical value as paper copies so free to access electronic publishing seems an obvious way forward. The dispersal of knowledege may increase interest and visitor numbers as well as inform and educate which is part of EH's remit. Who knows, mass access to such material may result in new insights into the material and sites. I think we are now rushing beyond the "closed shop" academic model which prevailed in the age of paper distribution and RAT seems to be on point for that;

I also find the downloads here very useful;
