Unlike impermeable rocks, which do not allow water to pass through, permeable rocks rarely support rivers and are therefore subject to less erosion. As a result they commonly form upland areas (such as the chalk downs of southeastern England, and the limestone Pennines of northern England).

All rocks are permeable but not to the same degree. Permeability depends on the grain size of the rock. When the grain size is coarse such as in unconsolidated sand and gravel, porous sandstone, and cavernous limestone rocks have high permability.

The permeability of rocks is determined by the size of the pores between the rock particles. If the rock has small pores, water cannot easily infiltrate into the rock and this means that the rock is impermeable. On the other hand, if the rock has large pores, water can easily infiltrate and thus the rock is permeable.
