Just out of curiousity I scanned a map of London's King's Cross
neighborhood, and drew a circle with a 1 mile radius centered on
King's Cross Station. One mile is approximately a 20 minute walk.
If you would like to look at it.

I don't recommend downloading it unless you have high speed access. It
will still work with a modem, but it will take a while. Best view at
800x600 or better resolution.
It's nice to see the neighborhoods we've been talking about, and get
some landmark references.
Map is from a paper map of London by Collins. This covers the city in
detail including Docklands and Greenwich. (us$9.95)
Another good paper map for fan fic writers is Zagat Survey. It shows
detailed maps of each significant neighborhood, and the main city map
shows restaurants, and identifies them by price, quality, and cooking
style. Great if you need Harry and Ron to meet at a restaurant
somewhere, or if you need to reference landmarks as they walk down the
street.
Good on-line maps-

includes aerial photo maps

Java interactive map, allows distance measurements and shows one way
streets.
Just thought I would pass that along.
