The archive includes a page for each of the 250+ cuttings on the site (10m square usually with some exceptions, especially for the ramparts). Each cutting page includes a brief description of the square, links to the plans, photographs and supervisor notes for the cutting, and includes a summary of the features and finds in the cutting. You can then look at the feature  and finds records in more detail and albums of the plans and photographs.
