Map of 17th century Bristol

Does anyone know where to find a map of Bristol as it was 1600-1650? I am particularly interested in the city layout about 1640—streets, major districts, the waterfront, suburbs on the south side of the Avon, etc.

Thanks,
Lyle Smith

There is a fine collection of maps of Bristol through the centuries on diplay on the first floor balcony at Bristol Museum, Queens Road. And some reproductions are on sale.
