Geoff:
You seem to have invented a whole heap of cities in your notes. The 
only cities on the map would be the cities of London and Westminster. 
The choice of towns in Surrey is rather varied. I wouldn't include 
Haslemere on a list of major places. Also, Croydon is a very large 
and important commercial centre - if it wasn't only a few miles from 
London it probably would be a city in its own right and not a London 
Borough.

Geoff:
(Charing Cross Road if I may correct your spelling). There was a 
thread on the location of Grimmauld Place looking at the Underground 
station evidence. It begins at message 83992.
