Weeds coming up through stones

Hi all


my front garden is just a raised area cordoned off with little wooden stakes and filled with small stones/gravel and I get a lot of weeds coming through it. There are liners under the stones, but are very old (ive been there 10 years and who knows how long they were down before I moved in) and have obviously deteriorated with age and cut by edges of stones. I hate gardening, and the area often looks quite untidy by the time I get around to doing anything with it.


Other than lifting all the gravel and relining the area, do I have any options for stopping these weeds - or at the very least reducing them?


There is no grass or plants/shrubbery, just a stoned area.
