Banfield Street runs along the historic Canton Lead that once wrapped the western side of Ararat’s gold‑rush centre, linking the Gum San Chinese Heritage Centre between View Point and Laby Streets and reflecting the town’s grid‑plan layout of bluestone and heritage‑age streetscapes. The street is lined with residences typical of the long‑standing settlement that grew from the 1850s boom, sitting amid the historic fabric of Ararat’s gold‑era buildings.

The road enjoys easy access to the Western Highway and connects to the city’s main transport network – a short drive to the regional railway station, regular Ararat Transit bus routes, and the Ararat Airport 5 km south. Nearby amenities include the Gum San Chinese Heritage Centre, the Hopkins Correctional Centre (1.8 km) and the Ararat Prison (1.6 km), providing both cultural and civic services within walking distance.
