Hi everyone,

I'm looking at maybe putting down some sort of Gravel or Aggregate on our driveway (now a lot bigger after lopping down some hedges) as a cheaper option to having the whole lot block paved. I understand a weed barrier will need to be used, but this got me thinking about drainage. Should the barrier itself be of the fabric or plastic type, and are the plastic types slightly porous and allow water through, or does it it just sit there under the stones until it's dried out? The drive itself is approx 60-70m sq.

Sorry if this is a really dumb question lol.
