You can use ooc.openstreetmap.org to see out-of-copyright Ordnance
Survey maps for most of Britain. The coverage varies from area to area
and series to series, but between them pretty much everywhere is covered.

Mick,
I've been tracing roman road from these maps into OSM. You can best see
them at http://maps3.org.uk/tiles/historic.html
<http://maps.webhop.net/historic> , kindly provided by Graham Jones. The
blue lines are the roman roads. It also shows anything else "historic"
in the UK. It is currently a couple of months out of date but Graham
will be updating it.
Over the next year I aim to be more methodical about this as I found my
OS "Map of Roman Britain", 3rd Edition, 16 miles to one inch which I
bought as a teenager and is out of copyright.
I've been using historic=roman_road but will be switching to
historic=road, culture=roman as per an excellent tagging schema proposed
by Francesco de Virgilio at
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Fradeve11/prove2 , as this will
enable a pan-European approach.
Mike
