Navigation "doghouse"

During my PPL training I was trained under the old "RAF" 'syllabus'.

In VFR navigation we were taught to not only draw the lines joining the reporting points, but also beside each of these lines we drew a 'doghouse', with a triangle roof which is written the heading, then under the roof is 3 rectangular boxes, making it look like a 3 storey house with a triangle roof.

For those who used this technique, pls help me out. What were the e info you filled up in the 3 rectangle boxes? Was it cruise altitude, safety altitude & EET? If yes, in which order?

Can't seem to find any info on this in the PPL nav books.

Cheers!
