King William Street
The walkway starts near the corner of North Terrace and King William Street, in front of the front gates and gatehouse of Government House. The very corner is occupied by the South African War Memorial. Also on that corner, starting from the gatehouse and walking SE, are statues of the heads of Sir Thomas John Mellis Napier (1882–1976), Mary Lee and Sir Mark Oliphant, all of whom have plaques on the walkway.
