Dartmoor National Park Authority had appealed against January high court ruling that effectively outlawed the practice
Wild camping is once again allowed on Dartmoor after the national park won a successful appeal against a ruling brought by a wealthy landowner.
Camping had been assumed to be allowed under the Dartmoor Commons Act since 1985, until a judge ruled otherwise in January. It was the only place in England such an activity was allowed without permission from a landowner.
