Hello All.
I found this..........

"Birmingham’s only caves were to be found in the sandstone cliffs at B24 Gravelly Hill in the cliff at the foot of Copeley Hill west of Slade Road; the cliffs were made by the action of the River Tame wearing its way through the sandstone ridge. The caves were known as the Dwarf Holes certainly from 1490 and were probably natural caves which had been artificially enlarged, though when it not known. In 1900 they were rediscovered during sewerage work and blocked up; they were used as air-raid shelters during World War 2 and destroyed by the building of Spaghetti Junction 1973. Many Victorian sandstone garden walls can still be seen along Gravelly Hill."
