Any suggestions for a more 'traditional' map for a city this size are welcome - I can't seem to wrap my head around it for some reason.

If I'm reading that scale bar right (If "5" means "5 miles" as opposed to "5 something-else"), you've got something close to 5,000 hectares of raw fantasy urbanity happening inside those walls ... roughly 30 times the size of 14th-century London, and more than 20 times the size of Paris in the same period. Ancient Rome, which was much bigger than anything medieval would ever get (but is a good model for badass fantasy cities) was about 1/9th the size of this town you've got here.

Now, that's cool, obviously, 'cause fantasy cities may as well be badass if that's what you're in the mood for ... but you're right that it'll require a non-traditional approach when mapping, something more like a modern-day city map than a style suitable for an ancient or medieval one. Stick to showing major streets only, and naming your districts and major landmarks. In other words, you're on the right track, just keep on with that, IMO.

On the other hand, I readily admit that I have no idea if I'm reading the scale-bar right. Clarification on that, please.

Edited Addition: I love the name of "the dammit wall".
