Jeremy Clarkson looks set to expand his famous Diddly Squat Farm after being granted permission by the council for a new project.
The former Top Gear presenter, 64, has swapped high powered cars for tractors in the past few years as part of his Prime Video series Clarkson's Farm.
Despite his ownership of Diddly Squat Farm going all the way back to 2008, it wasn't until 2021 that his farming ambitions were revealed on the public in the extremely popular series.

Since the show's premiere Clarkson's Farm has gone on to be a massive success for Amazon, with a fourth season currently in production.
And it appears that Clarkson and his team have some very grand plans for the future of Diddly Squat as well, with the TV presenter recently filed an application for permission to construct a bullpen on his land.
Planning documents shared via the Oxford Mail reveal plans to construct a 6m by 11.5m bullpen extension to one of his barns where he currently homes a small herd of Beef Shorthorn cattle.
The application justified the extension in order to ensure the welfare of the main herd, writing: "The proposed extension is to provide a pen in order that the farm’s bull can be housed separate from the main herd to ensure welfare and avoid out-of-season calvings.
"The building is of a standard design for keeping cattle. The open span offers a light and airy space for livestock to ensure welfare."
The planning approval means that fans will most likely see the construction taking place in the next season of Clarkson's Farm.
A barn extension isn't the only change taking place at Diddly Squat either, with Clarkson recently filing an application with West Oxfordshire District Council requesting permission to renovate a nearby local pub.
Planning documents reveal that Clarkson is hoping the renovate The Windmill Pub in the Cotswolds and obtain permission for alcohol to be sold outdoors in a giant marquee.
The TV presenter had temporarily opened the premises for the Euro 2024 final, however The Windmill is not expected to be finished until 2025.
However fans may have a little while longer to wait before seeing Clarkson's lofty plans play out in new episodes of Clarkson's Farm, as it was recently revealed that production had been hit by several major issues due to its proximity to an RAF base.
According to reports from locals, filming has been disrupted multiple times due to the planes roaring overhead as well as forcing crew to do multiple reshoots.
