Restoration isn't the problem for the most part. The English part of
the National Monuments Record contains about 10 million items (mostly
photos I think). Wales and Scotland ad few million more.

That includes a fairly complete public domain aerial survey of the UK
from the 1940s.

We do not have the capacity to support digitalization on that scale.

Are you talking about our capacity or their capacity?  The Library of
Congress has 14 million items and has been digitizing since 1994.  It's an
ongoing process; they've developed excellent protocols.
