Description:Kinver Edge is renowned for its rock houses, thought to be the earliest dwellings in the area. The Edge is soft sandstone which has meant that a number of caves and caverns have been worked into it, Holy Austin Rock being one of them.

Rock houses were built on two levels at Holy Austin Rock. The roofs of the houses can be made out on the right hand side. Sightseers walk along the path.

Photographer: Albert Henry Yelland.
