I have taken all of the shale which the last owners had put on our front garden as it was a mess (I think it was a quick fix to make the garden look tidier when they came to sell it).
I am now left with an area which is about 15' x 15' of quite hard soil but I don't want to grow anything there.
We will probably use it to park a small car on when my daughter gets older (she is only 11 but it will I am sure the time will fly by to when she will be learning to drive and want her own car).
Anyway, I have put some containers with various plants under the window and by the front door to make it look less bare.
I have found a local paving stone/fence seller who has some Hexagonal paving stones for sale (raven pattern) for just over £1.00 each.
I was thinking of making a kind of path from the gate (well where the gate should be as we don't have any on the drive
) towards the front door.
Do I have to buy some sand to put under these and if I decide to put some coloured gravel inbetween the stepping stones do I need to put something under this too?
