Rare flowers only found in Yorkshire are to be protected as part of a scheme to restore a wildlife habitat.

Ingleborough in the Yorkshire Dales is a mix of meadows, limestone pavements and nature reserves - and is home to rarities such as Yorkshire sandwort.

Rachael Bice, from Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, said a new scheme could see the area become one of the world's "most significant limestone landscapes".

However, she said the Wild Ingleborough project was "a race against time".
