Company Path Garden is a small garden on the west side of the Avenue of the Republic in Georgetown, Guyana, between Church and North Streets. During colonial times, “company path” was the name given to a road used by the propertied class as an access road from the river to their lands. The company path, in this case, extended from the side of the Demerara River along the path on which the Bank of Guyana was built and eastwards beyond the Avenue of the Republic.[1]
In 1870, the entrance to the old Anglican cathedral (St. George's), together with the entire width of Company Path, was handed over to the Mayor and Town Council by the Government. In 1908 part of the land was enclosed by an iron rail and planted as a garden – the Company Path Garden. It is now the site of the Non-Aligned Monument.
