That's good to know ... thanks! I prefer natural gravel over crushed rock which seems to be predominantly used here.

Thanks for the info K&H, will keep that in mind, we have to do some clearing and calculating first!

Does anyone know what area 1 ton of gravel would cover enough to stop the weeds poking through?

You will still get weeds no matter how deep the gravel, if you lay a weed cover first then add gravel to improve the look, the weeds that grow in the gravel are much easier to deal with than the deep rooted weeds in soil.
