Jeremy Clarkson has been targeted by thieves as he revealed that potential robbers have set their sights on his Diddly Squat Farm in Oxfordshire. In his most recent column, the former Top Gear host, has gone to extreme lengths to protect his land as he admitted his farm is being targeted.
The 64-year-old explained that outsiders visited the farmyard and had drones fly over it, seemingly to map out a criminal plan.
He revealed that the people in question first checked out how many animals he had on the land and had also looked for security cameras.
Jeremy started by sharing he believed that he had too many farm animals as he admitted a dozen guinea fowl on his farm had left him struggling to sleep.
He currently owns two dogs, 30 geese, more than 100 sheep, 55 pigs, 17 cows, 70 hens and 29 goats before he made a worrying discovery.

“Two weeks ago, five men in a van came into the farmyard. They checked out the security cameras and asked Kaleb [Cooper] how many dogs were on the site,” he wrote in his column published in The Sun.
“I reported this to the police, who said the plates on the van had been cloned. More worryingly, on two separate nights in the last week, a drone has been spotted scouting the house and the farmyard.”
Jeremy continued to explain that after he had spoken to the police, they advised him to check his security systems to ensure they were “up to scratch”.
He insisted that the guinea fowl are enough to drive any would-be thief away due to their ear-piercingly loud vocals, which the TV host compared to Nasa testing their 37million horsepower Space Shuttle engines.
Jeremy went on to share that his daughter and her husband gifted him 12 of the birds at Christmas in revenge for the consistently loud toys he purchases for his granddaughter.
But he has confirmed his current security systems are strong, as he remarked: “Oh trust me on this. They are. Anyone who tries to burgle us is going to have their eardrums turned into a blood-speckled gooey mush.”
