The historic Yorkshire Dales farmhouse being restored by Amanda Owen and her family has become one of the stars of Our Farm Next Door.
Known as Anty John's, the remote building in Swaledale is being transformed into a family home after years of neglect.
But the property has a history stretching back long before the Owen family became television personalities.
Who owns Anty John's farmhouse?
Anty John's was purchased by the Owen family as part of their plans to create a more secure future for their children.
Amanda has explained that owning the property represents an important change from their circumstances at Ravenseat, where the family has lived and worked as tenant farmers for decades.

While the property is publicly associated with Amanda and Clive's family, the precise legal ownership and names recorded on the title should be confirmed through HM Land Registry before making a more specific claim.
Where is Anty John's?
Anty John's is situated in Swaledale, North Yorkshire, close to the Owen family's famous Ravenseat Farm.
The property is also known as High Smith Holme.
Its setting has provided both spectacular scenery for the television programme and considerable challenges for the restoration.
What is the history of Anty John's?
The farmhouse is associated with Anthony John Clarkson, a Georgian-era land surveyor and commissioner.
Clarkson was involved in mapping Swaledale, and his connection with the property helps explain the name by which it is known today.
The building's history reflects the long agricultural and social heritage of the Yorkshire Dales, where isolated farmhouses have served generations of rural families.
The fourth series of Our Farm Next Door also explores the history of the Clarkson family, including a tragedy connected with its past.
The restoration has therefore become an opportunity to explore not only the building itself but also the lives of those who occupied it before the Owens.
Why did Amanda Owen buy Anty John's?
Amanda has explained that the project is intended to provide security and opportunities for her nine children.
Although Ravenseat has been the family's home for many years, it is a tenanted farm.
Owning a property nearby provides a different kind of long-term stability.
Speaking previously about the renovation, Amanda said she wanted her children to have opportunities to remain in the area and find work locally.
The farmhouse could eventually provide accommodation for different members of the family as their circumstances change.
What work has been done at Anty John's?
The restoration has taken several years and involved the Owen family working alongside experienced local tradespeople.
The project has been complicated by the property's age, its remote location and the unpredictable Yorkshire Dales weather.

By the fourth series, the family had reached the stage of painting plastered walls, installing oak flooring and preparing individual rooms.
The programme also follows their efforts to choose furnishings and make the historic building suitable for modern family life.
Who will live at Anty John's when it is finished?
Although Amanda has spoken about the property's importance to her children's future, the family's final living arrangements have not been publicly confirmed.
She has previously said that several members of the family are interested in living there.
The fourth series, airing in October and November 2026, follows further progress towards making the farmhouse habitable.
