The copyright information as given on this page at http://cadw.wales.gov.uk/copyright/?lang=en implies that images may not be used for commercial purposes. It is not clear if the image that is found on their website is covered by crown copyright, or by the website's own copyright statement. The meta-data of the image makes it clear that the image is actually ©Cadw, Welsh Assembly Government (Crown Copyright)

This image is Crown Copyright and is reproduced with the permission of Cadw under delegated authority from the Controller of HMSO. This image can only be used for the specific purpose for which it was originally requested and must not be stored, or reused for any other purpose, without further permission being sought from the Cadw Photographic Library.

It is OGL-licensed Crown Copyright, per the link you gave. That makes it free for commercial use, and overrides the metadata statement, as Cadw has since given permission. Carl Lindberg (talk) 16:28, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
