Click on area of interest to enlarge:

I used to have a number of other maps but many of the links seem to be broken.

Added: Cross's 1851 London map has a lot of detail. A lot of good maps are/were on Mapco, which is giving an error message. Don't know if it is a glitch or something more serious. :(

This is a lot later than you are looking for, but there seems to be a lot of detail:

http://www.londonancestor.com/maps/bc-westm-w-th.htm
http://www.londonancestor.com/maps/bc-westm-s-th.htm

Once again, later than what you want:

Of course, it might depend on what you are looking for as to which map might help.
