Tenant House

Tenant House (also known as Tenant's Cottage and Annie's Cottage) is a house located in Church Lane. It is currently the home of Liam Cavanagh, Paddy Dingle and Bear Wolf.
==History==
Tenant's House is the second oldest surviving building in the village, having been built in 1671 by someone with the initials T.R. It was first seen in 1993 when Annie Sugden and Leonard Kempinski bought the property after Annie's family had to leave the original Emmerdale Farm. Instead of moving into Hawthorn Cottage with her oldest son Jack Sugden and his wife Sarah Sugden, Annie chose this property and lived there along with her husband Leonard, until the Plane Crash claimed Leonard's life and left Annie in a coma for months. After recovering from her injuries, Annie moved to Spain, leaving the property empty. In August 1994, the Glover family began renting the property at a reduced rate as part of Ned Glover's job at Emmerdale Farm. After the Glovers moved to Holdgate Farm, the property had several tenants including Kim Tate and lover David Glover in 1996, followed by Sean Rossi, the Cairns family, Marlon Dingle, Terry Woods and Sean Reynolds, amongst others. 
In 2002, Annie's son Jack moved back into the house along with their children Robert, Victoria and Andy. In 2004, Jack married Diane Blackstock who also moved in. 
In 2007, Victoria caused a fire which gutted the house. Greg Doland, with the help of his son Jake rebuilt the house and moved in with his wife Melanie Doland and baby son Arthur. Faye and Ryan Lamb moved in mid-2009 but they had both moved out less than two years later.
In 2012, Jai Sharma bought the house for Rachel Breckle, who was pregnant with their son Archie at the time. The following year, Rachel moved her boyfriend Sam Dingle and Sam's young son Samson in with her. Soon after Sam and Samson moved in, Rachel's sister, Ali Spencer, was made homeless so Ali, Ali's girlfriend, Ruby Haswell, and Ali's two children Sean and Amelia also moved into the property. With eight people living in the house, space soon became an issue so Rachel, Sam, Samson and Archie moved back to Sam's family home, Wishing Well Cottage, leaving Ali, Ruby, Sean and Amelia to live at Tenant House. Sean moved out in September 2014 when he joined the army.
In January 2015, Rachel and Archie moved back into Tenant House and Sam and Samson soon followed in May. By June, Ali, Ruby and Amelia had moved out and in August Rachel and Archie moved to Liverpool for a fresh start with Ali following Ruby's death. Later that month, Jai's estranged pregnant wife Megan moved into the house and became Sam's house-mate. Jai and Megan's daughter Eliza was born in March 2016 and she also moved into the property after a spell in the NICU.
Sam and Samson moved back to Wishing Well Cottage in May 2017 to give Megan and her new boyfriend, Frank Clayton space. Frank lived in Tenant House on-and-off until his death in August 2019. Following Frank's death, Megan and daughter Eliza moved out when they left the village later that month. 
Liam Cavanagh rented the house from Jai in May 2020 after ending his relationship with Leyla Harding to have somewhere to stay with his daughter Leanna until her death in 2021.
In 2023, after Paddy and Chas Dingle divorced, Liam let Paddy and his dad Bear move in with his daughter Eve occasionally coming to stay. Paddy started seeing ex-wife Mandy Dingle later on in 2023 who also moved in when they got married in 2024.
In 2024, Liam started seeing Ella Forster, who was looking for somewhere to stay and so she moved in with him. They later split and she moved out to the B&B, before they got back together and she moved back in. They later split again, when Liam wanted to go back to Chas, but this time she stayed living in the house.
