Hadn't considered the possibility of such a routeing at the Inner
London end.

The 109 was the bus replacement for the Purley-Embankment tram service,
and so followed the same loop as the tram tracks along the Embankment.

What did the buses show as their destination on the way to
the "loop"

Embankment Station (via Blackfriars) or Embankment Station (via
Westminster), according to which way round the loop they were going.

and was there a recognised point on the loop for the blinds
to be changed and layover taken?

Embankment Station - as in tram days.

But surely it was Charing Cross station then. My vague memory is that
trams showed 'Embankment'.
