Sorry if covered elsewhere but I couldn't find it. I am looking to replace gravelled front garden with 60mm block paving. I think its 10mm pea gravel approx 50mm deep. Can I use some or all of this as sub base with say 100mm type 1 compacted on top. Obviously will need to dig out 200mm of soil beneath gravel (type 1 plus 40mm sharp sand plus blocks). Would this work or am I being lazy? Paving will need to stand a car on it. Cheers
