Does anyone have a good map of Windsor Great Park that includes most of
the houses and estates in it?

The Ordnance Survey's OS Explorer Map 160 ("Windsor, Weybridge &
Bracknell") is the current official map at a scale of 1:25 000.
You can buy it online for =A37.49 at:
=3D/products_new/25k/index.cfm?shop_ID=3D1
If that's a sledgehammer to crack a nut, you can use the Ordnance
Survey's free "Get-a-map" online service to produce a 1:25 000 scale
map that can be just for the specific area of the park:
Note that if you do use the Get-a-map service, the OS's website's
search engine doesn't find "Windsor Great Park" (or even "Windsor
Castle") as a place-name, so you'll have to search for "Windsor" and
navigate to the east and south from there. If you still have
difficulties using it, post back here and I'll put together a map for
you of the relevant area.
The OS do produce even more detailed maps than the above, but they're
not available as retail products; possibly you could contact the
central public library for the area who might be able to provide you
with a copy.
Finally, the Godfrey Edition do very good reprints of old OS maps from
the nineteenth century if you're interested in how it all looked around
about the reign of Queen Victoria. They're extremely good value at
=A32.20 + postage, and are also at a scale of 1:25 000.
Hope this helps!
