Street maps in particular are works of art, not accurate surveys. London looks nothing like the A-Z map in reality, the map is tweaked and distorted to make it more readily legible to the user ; making room for street names, making relative positions more obvious than a true scale representation, etc. This even applies to OS 50k Landranger, with exaggerated offsets to staggered crossroads, road and watercourse widths, etc.
