The Gore family spent August and September 1912 in Harold Gilman's house at Letchworth, the fashionable garden city begun in 1903. The cinder path linked the old market town of Baldock to the end of Works Road in Letchworth, about a mile from where he stayed. This is one of three versions of the subject painted by Gore. The bold juxtaposition of bright patches of unmodulated colours reflects his interest in modern French painting.
