Jeremy Clarkson has provided an update on his farm following severe flooding in Oxfordshire.
Heavy rain fell across the county throughout last week starting on the night of Sunday, September 22 and continued relentlessly for days.
This caused major floods which affected cities, towns and villages with lots of fields and farms badly affected.
Mr Clarkson owns Diddly Squat Farm in Chadlington and has documented his agricultural adventures on the hit series Clarkson's Farm since 2021.
Mercifully, we are quite high up. And on good draining ground. My thoughts are with those who aren’t so lucky.

The 64-year-old's farm near Chipping Norton has been hit by floods in the past and some watchers of the Prime Video show were worried of a repeat last week.
Sending a message to Mr Clarkson publicly, one fan posted on X: “All this rain not doing your crops any good.
“I thought about your farm the other day when I saw on the news about flooding in Oxfordshire.”
Mr Clarkson provided some positive news in response, informing that Diddly Squat Farm had not been as badly affected by the floods as anticipated.“Mercifully, we are quite high up and on good draining ground,” he said.
“My thoughts are with those who aren’t so lucky.”
There have been three seasons of Clarkson's Farm so far but a fourth is currently in production and is expected to release at some point in 2025.
