Has anyone had any success in accessing the RCAHMW website described below? I cannot access it at that URL. It might not seem immediately relevant but the RCAHMS site is very useful for looking up old buildings and also has 1:10000 maps associated with it. So far I have not found any free online large scale maps of Wales. Martin Briscoe Fort William M&LFHS | Gwynedd FHS From the RCAHMS website http://www.rcahms.gov.uk "A ground-breaking partnership between the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland (RCAHMS) and the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales (RCAHMW) has enabled the production of COFLEIN, the online database of the National Monuments Record of Wales. This partnership initiative is known as SWISH (Shared Web Information Services for Heritage). RCAHMS and RCAHMW are now working together to develop RCAHMS' existing CANMORE database and COFLEIN in tandem, providing efficiency savings and speedier development through sharing costs and skills. Future development will include sophisticated image facilities, event and object recording and cross-database searching. Both organisations' principal aim is to work with communities across Scotland and Wales to provide accessible information about the historic environment for everyone.
