It attracted so much attention Charles I came to visit in 1633. In 1646 he returned in secret, fleeing Parliamentary troops who later broke up the community. A visit to St John's Church in Little Gidding by T. S. Eliot in 1936 helped to inspire the last poem from the Four Quartets of the same name.
