Kinver Edge and the Rock Houses - Holy Austin Rock Houses - Teas

An afternoon visit to the National Trust property, Kinver Edge and the Rock Houses.

Kinver Edge is home to the last troglodyte dwellings occupied in England, with a set of complete cave-houses excavated into the local sandstone. One of the rocks, "Holy Austin", was a hermitage until the Reformation. The Holy Austin rock houses were inhabited until the 1960s. They are now owned by the National Trust and are open for tour. One house has been restored to a Victorian appearance, and the Martindale Caves show what life was like in the 1930s. The cottage gardens and an orchard are being replanted and restored.

First view of the Holy Austin Rock Houses. There was also a middle level but was not accessible to the public.

From down here could see an old Teas sign.

There used to be a Rock House Cafe.
