Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids

Amanda Owen and her family breathe life back into a derelict farmhouse, battling against unforgiving Dales weather on one of the most remote building sites in Britain. In this first episode, the family are granted permission to convert the property, and historian Derek delves into the building's colourful past - discovering that it was once home to famous 19th-century Swaledale mapmaker and diarist Anthony John Clarkson.

The first major job for builder Richard is to carefully strip off the valuable old roof stones, remove the wrecked roof timbers and add a steel beam to support the new structure. It's a race against time to beat worsening weather - the longer the building lies exposed, the greater the chance it could collapse. Amanda heads to the local archives to pore over hand-drawn maps of the area, leading her and the kids to discover a long-forgotten lead mine down by the river.

As Christmas looms, Amanda and family face re-roofing Anty John's during a fearsome Dales winter, which follows a wet and stormy autumn that has left the project months behind schedule. Builder Richard and roofer Steven must do their best to complete the arduous and technical challenge of positioning dozens of stone slabs, while trying to stay dry and warm.

As winter turns to spring, the Owen family balance the pressures of lambing season with the race to get their farmhouse renovation watertight. Amanda and Clive digest exciting news from the planners which could see the scope of the renovation - and the workload- grow massively, while eldest Owen son Reuben teams up with sidekick and younger brother Sidney to tackle the ongoing drainage issues.

The planners agree that renovation can now extend into the adjacent barn, Anty John's is set to become a four-bedroom family home, heaping even more pressure on builder Richard. Desperate to shore up the building's precarious foundations, his crew race to finish the concrete floor. Amanda and historian Derek head off to meet distant Clarkson relative Dorothy, eager to hunt down any leads relating to former resident Anthony Clarkson's elusive diaries.

Yorkshire Shepherdess Amanda Owen and her family return for a new series, as they continue the monumental task of turning an abandoned farmhouse into a 21st-century home to secure their future in the Dales. Across the seasons, they take on life on the farm and the epic renovation of Anty John's - a dilapidated stone barn with an incredible history. In this episode, it's summer in Swaledale and the renovation of Anty John's is about to hit its one-year anniversary, with plenty of work still to do for Richard the builder and the Owen family. For the kids, the summer holidays mean picnics and playing in the stream, but with dad Clive laid low by a hip operation, they'll need to help out around the farm too. It's the perfect weather for Amanda and daughter Clemmie to set off on a horse ride in the sunshine from Ravenseat to Anty John's, while Clive, Reuben and Sid look for a spring to supply their water. Meanwhile, as summer turns to autumn, Richard's crew grapple with the challenge of extra work now that the Owens have permission to extend their new home into the adjacent barn - and there's excitement as Anty John's new windows arrive on site.

Builder Richard grapples with the challenge of moving oak ceiling beams into position while, over at Ravenseat, Clive picks up the tweezers to get his sheep looking their best for the sales. An incredible discovery could reveal a wealth of information about Anty John's 19th-century resident Anthony Clarkson. And, as winter draws in, the building is finally scaffolding-free.

A second Christmas during the Owens' farmhouse renovation is fast approaching, and Amanda and the kids are preparing their farm animals and pets for the cold weather. Richard is keen to get doors fitted so that the house is protected from the elements, while Amanda and her daughter Clemmie meet historian Derek to walk in the footsteps of Anty John's former occupant, diarist Anthony Clarkson.

A major snowfall brings stunning landscapes and carefree play days for the kids, while builder Richard is hard at work fitting floors, pipes and electrics. Amanda's off-roader gets stuck in a snowdrift and needs a helping hand from Miles and his tractor, and the family battle members to protect their pregnant sheep scattered across the Fells.

The Owens' build approaches its second anniversary, as they continue to transform their run-down Yorkshire farmhouse into their new family home. In spring, builder Richard embarks on the huge job of plastering walls, while Amanda has to make big decisions on the kitchen. Dan the joiner arrives with the new doors, but Nancy queries the lack of a cat flap. After a busy lambing season, the sheep return to the moor, and Amanda takes the chance to dig deeper into the recently transcribed Anthony Clarkson diary.

It's summer and the children are making the most of the school holidays, swimming in the stream and going off in search of their new peacock chicks. Sid and Amanda inspect a vital bridge that's collapsed on the track up to Anty John's, and Raven returns to help celebrate Nancy's ninth birthday with the rest of the family.

As the main interior work approaches completion, Amanda takes the girls go on a camping trip under the stars in Swaledale, and heads to a local antiques shop in search of a traditional Yorkshire fireplace to restore and fit into Anty John's new living room. Derek the historian takes Amanda, Clem and Nancy to the church where the house's former owner got married.

The Owens prepare for Clive's 70th birthday, Amanda worries about a premature newborn calf, and Clemmie and Annas are hoping to seal a deal to buy their first ever sheep. Reuben, Clive and Sid set to work on repairing the road bridge up to Anty John's, where the underfloor heating is finally about to be turned on, much to the kids' delight.

Autumn turns to winter as the Owens prepare to say goodbye to a much-loved family pet. A farrier re-shoes the horses, and Amanda sets out for a canter in the Swaledale countryside. Clive gives Annas, Clemmie and Nancy a lesson in working with Nellie the sheepdog, while Amanda chooses ceiling lights and installs an antique fireplace as Ravenseat sees the first snow of winter.
