A conservation charity has bought 2.6 acres (1 hectare) of land to create its first nature reserve.

Charity Devon Culm is creating the reserve in an area of culm grassland - a mix of purple moor grass and rush pasture - next to Knowstone Moor and Rackenford Moor, between Exmoor and Dartmoor.

Culm grasslands have significantly diminished since the mid-20th Century due to changes in farming practices, the charity said.
