Reverse Turn
London Transport and its successors have always had an extreme aversion to reverse turns. Despite this, route G1 has one at Shaftesbury Estate in Battersea, as this was the only solution for turning the bus round.
Despite appearances to the contrary, the Shaftesbury Estate is a mid-Victorian housing project. You can see the backs of some of the houses behind the bus. The G1 passes through the estate to terminate just outside it.
