About

Kinver is a large village and civil parish in South Staffordshire, situated near the border with Worcestershire. The area is defined by its position on the edge of the West Midlands conurbation, with a landscape that transitions from urban fringe to rural countryside. It lies close to the River Stour, with its topography marked by the notable sandstone ridge that runs through the region. This geography has historically supported agriculture and small-scale industry.

The local sandstone is particularly significant, having been quarried for centuries and famously used to carve dwellings directly into the rock faces at Kinver Edge. This National Trust site, with its remnant cave houses and heathland, dominates the southern skyline. The area's economy traditionally centred on agriculture, nail making, and the later commuter influence from nearby Stourbridge and the wider Black Country.
