Hi all I saw that you had asked them about this on Twitter Andy, but assume you didn't get a response?
I notice that they are working with Smartframe, so it's possible to share or embed the images but obviously with restrictions, which shouldn't be the case. I'm not currently in contact with Historic England but will get in touch with them about this issue.
