I notice you didn't include a 45 degree wall section. I haven't built
Castle in over a decade, and I don't have the right pieces handy, but here's a
floorplan for a possible 45-ish design (it actually curves a bit towards the
center of the plate):

192k...)
The color chart is as follows:
Green: Castle wall, corner
http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/2345
Red: 3x3 brick, faceted
http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/2462
Blue: 3x3 plate w/o corner (partially hidden by red bricks)
http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/2450
Purple: 2x3 plate
Brown: 1x3 plate
Yellow: Technic brick connectors (per CCC specs).
The upper right shows the floorplan of the base wall while the lower left
shows the floorplan of the walkway as it would be placed on top of the base
(rotated 180 degrees, of course). It also somewhat demonstrates how this
section can be alternated to produce a longer 45 degree section. There's a
certain amount of leeway as to the exact shape of the wall, but the slightly
curved path looks like it would do the best job of keeping the walkway matched
to the wall base.
