Collect Britain
http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/
The Collect Britain website contains over 90,000 images and sounds from the collection of the British Library. Quite a few of the different exhibits will be of interest to primary teachers. There's a large collection of Victorian photographs, a great batch of sound clips to illustrate regional accents and dialects and a lovely selection of religious manuscripts. The search engine is very interesting. Not only can you search by keyword but you can also find items of local interest by searching using a UK postcode.
