The Barracks was located at present Asia Pacific Centre and the Officer's Quarters, also known as Officer's Mess, was located at present Bank of China Tower, close to Queen's Road, (present-day Queensway). Across Garden Road was Murray Parade Ground and Queen's Road North Barracks, which was later known as Wellington Barracks.

Further west of the parade ground, behind Battery Path, stood the Murray Battery.
