When the collection of digital images has been completed, and the necessary permissions obtained, the list will give access to colour images of both sides (face and dorse) of the whole corpus of Anglo-Saxon charters on single sheets, arranged in a manner which is intended to make it possible to browse through the material in an instructive way, for a variety of different purposes.
As indicated above, the notes on charters remain in a state of development, and will be revised and updated as the need and opportunities arise.
