W1, Homer Row, Crawford Mansions

2017: Eliot's flat is for sale for less than £1 million. That link (if it's still working) has a photo of Eliot at his desk in the flat. He was here with his first wife, Vivienne Haigh-Wood, 1916 - 18 and then "continued to use the flat as a pied-à-terre after moving to Buckinghamshire, until the couple moved to Regent’s Park in 1920."
