A conservationist has said more sightings of seahorses have been reported in the waters around the South West recently.

Neil Garrick-Maidment, the founder of Devon-based The Seahorse Trust, said two of the creatures had been seen in the inner harbour in Torquay for the first time, having previously only been recorded in the outer one.

Andrea Andrews-Benson's daughter had been crabbing in Torquay's harbour on Monday when she caught a seahorse and quickly returned it to the water.
