For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.TransSec (the body responsible for railway security) and British Transport Police impose strict conditions on the provision of left luggage facilities at railway stations. These currently include a requirement that all items may be subjected to X-ray examination. There are only a few stations in London which have such equipment. (Charing Cross, Euston, King's Cross, Liverpool Street, Paddington, Victoria & Waterloo). All of these facilities are managed by the Excess Baggage Company and they all close at 2300. (Victoria Coach station also has X-ray screened facilities but, once again, they close at 2300).
The Metropolitan Police use powers under anti-terrorism legislation to enforce similar rules upon any other locations wishing to offer left-luggage facilities. (i.e. lockers are banned because property can't be X-ray screened first). So, unfortunately, it's extremely unlikely that you'll find anywhere in central London offering left luggage storage at the hours you want.
