Two fairly recent favorites of mine are:

The Grave, by James Heneghan. Thirteen-year-old Tom, an unhappy foster child in Liverpool, falls into a massive open grave and is transported to Ireland in 1847, where he finds himself in the midst of the deadly potato famine.

The House on Hound Hill, by Maggie Prince. Soon after she, her mother, and her younger brother move into an old house on what was once known as Beggarsgate, Emily begins to have terrifyingly real glimpses of scenes of 17th century London devastated by the plague.
