Cwm Ciprwth Copper Mines http://www.penmorfa.com/cwmciprwth/
This simple website is a great introduction to the old copper mine of Cwm Ciprwth, up above Cwm Penant in the Snowdonia National Park. Read about its history and view some photos before going to see the real thing.

Old UK Photos http://www.oldukphotos.com
This site shares historic pictures from all over Britain, and there are already plenty from Wales. You need to know the old county structure to find your town (Colwyn Bay is in Denbighshire, for example). Suggested by Phil Evans. Mapping the Medieval Urban Landscape Project http://www.qub.ac.uk/urban_mapping/
This online atlas of towns founded by King Edward the First includes historic town plans, aerial photographs, historical essays, and maps showing what the towns may have looked like at the time they were established in around 1300AD. It covers Caernarfon, Conwy and Beaumaris, as well as other towns in Wales.
