On Dartmoor, archaeologists are looking at a high hill and think they may have discovered a Stone Age lookout point for spotting game.

Flint tools have been unearthed at the dig on Dartmoor

Excavations on a property close to Lustleigh turned up more than 80 flints that may be 8,000 years old.

According to experts, the tools were manufactured by hunter-gatherers while they kept an eye out for deer grazing on the plains below.

The region has been examined by professionals three times.

"The site poses interesting archaeological questions about how and why people used the landscape in a period about which little is currently known on Dartmoor. It is located on a ridge between the high moors to the West and the Wrey Valley immediately to the east. The location may have provided hunter-gatherers with a good vantage point from which to observe game moving through the landscape." mentioned Dr Lee Bray from Dartmoor National Park Authority.
