The Edge is a popular destination for walkers and hikers, offering stunning views of the surrounding countryside.

The village of Kinver has a rich history, dating back to the Anglo-Saxon period. It was once an important centre for the production of iron, with several ironworks operating in the area during the 18th and 19th centuries. Today, the village is home to a number of historic buildings, including the 13th-century St. Peter's Church and the Kinver Rock Houses, a series of cave dwellings that were inhabited until the early 20th century.
