Dartmoor camping ban could hit birdwatchers and climbers, court told

National park argues attempt by landowner to stop people sleeping overnight could restrict other sedentary pursuits'

Banning wild camping on Dartmoor could also end up affecting birdwatching and rock climbing, lawyers for the national park have said, as a landowner tries to stop people sleeping overnight in the park.

The judge hearing the case, Sir Julian Flaux, the chancellor of the high court, has said he will give a judgment on the case early next year.
