Sub base

In the absence of hardcore can I use ballast as a sub base for a concrete footpath?

If you are on particularly wet clay-like ground, then larger granular material would be better. For free draining firm ground then ballast would be ok as long as it is retained.

Thanks for that. I’d have used hardcore but not so easy to get delivered just now....
