Markland Grip is joined at its lower end by Hollinhill Grip.(A 'Grip' is a local term for a small valley bounded by cliffs.)The valleys,cliffs and rock shelters/caves were all formed from the meltwater action of the last receding glaciers.The three caves/rock shelters shown here were excavated by Leslie Armstrong (See Markland Grip).One of the sites is known as The Sepulchral Cave or Bone Cave because the remains of several people were found behind limestone walls.(Carbon dating shows the remains were deposited during the early Neolithic.)
These valleys are also SSSI and are managed by The Derbyshire Wildlife Trust.
