A stone age viewpoint from which ancient people scanned the landscape for prey has been pinpointed by archaeologists and volunteer helpers on a windswept Devon moor.

More than 80 pieces of flint have been recovered during excavations of the spot, which is now farmland near the village of Lustleigh on Dartmoor.

The archaeologists believe ancient people were working on flint cobbles to make tools about 8,000 years ago while keeping careful watch on the landscape for red deer, boar and possibly even reindeer.
