Ten-part TV adaptation of Flora Thompson's autobiographical trilogy of novels set in the idyllic 19th Century Oxfordshire of her childhood. When the birth of a new baby brings financial pressure to bear on the Timmins household, eldest daughter Laura (Olivia Hallinan) leaves the village of Lark Rise to begin work as an apprentice to her cousin, Dorcas Lane (Julia Sawalha), the postmistress of the neighbouring market town of Candleford. Laura and Dorcas soon become close friends and together they witness and experience the lives, loves and laughter of this now vanished corner of rural England.
