Little Gidding is the manor in Huntingdonshire that was the destination of poets' pilgrimages, as the site where Nicholas Ferrar founded an Anglican religious community in the mid-17th century.
Eliot was a much-honoured figure at the time of his death (1965);the Nobel Prize for Literature and the Order of Merit were both awarded to him in the same year,1948.
