What lies beneath? Sometimes photos from above can help us tell understand the past – these marks in the soil show early roads & cropmarks. zurl.co/RItj #WorldSoilDay 📸Toby Driver CB_Arolygu / RC_Survey, 2009

Beth sydd islaw? Gall lluniau oddi fry ein helpu i ddeall y gorffennol – mae’r olion yn y pridd yn dangos olion cnydau a ffyrdd cynnar. #DiwrnodPriddYByd 📸Toby Driver CB_Arolygu / RC_Survey, 2009 zurl.co/2BBQ

Digitised material is amazing, but nothing beats being able to see the originals. I’ve been looking through our aerial photography collection from the 1940s 😍 #ExploreYourArchive #archive #archivist zurl.co/KAwQY

Oes gennych chi hoff fynydd? Cader Idris ger Aberystwyth yw fy un i. Honnir mai cawr oedd Idris, a byddai’n defnyddio’r llyn ger y copa, sef Llyn Cau, fel cadair freichiau. #DiwrnodRhyngwladolMynyddoedd 📸Toby Driver CB_Arolygu / RC_Survey, 2009 zurl.co/0OMlO

Bryngaer o’r Oes Haearn yw Castell Nadolig. Heddiw mae’n rhan o fferm ond mae siapiau’r clostiroedd a rhai o’r gwrthgloddiau yn amlwg o hyd. zurl.co/u9Cxg 📸Toby Driver CB_Arolygu / RC_Survey, 2024 #NewyddEiGatalogio #EYAFestive

Codwyd yr Eglwys Norwyaidd yn 1868. Roedd yn darparu bwyd a gweithgareddau cymdeithasol a diwylliannol hefyd – cysylltiad â’u mamwlad. zurl.co/kGgjw 📸Susan Fielding CB_Arolygu / RC_Survey, 2024 #NewyddEiGatalogio #EYAFestive
