I don’t like gravel. That’s it.

  • noisy
  • scatters all over the neighborhood.
  • hard to walk on
  • dogs and cats crap in it
  • kids chuck it around and put it in their mouth.
  • doesn’t even look good.
  • difficult and heavy to remove once you have come to terms will all of the above.

Gravel advocates… explain your case for gravelling your garden/drive.

Gravel sceptics, feel free to share your distaste.

    Useful for drainage channels & such.

    As a garden surface, it makes me angry. So ugly, so annoying, so depressing.

      I think we are alone with this opinion. Seems lots of people like it.

        “Like” is a strong word. I understand the use for it, and will be using some of it in a few particular locations, but I don’t really like it like it.

        Uh, not sure how else to describe when it is laid down in a garden (other than for drainage or whatever).

        Expanse of gravel? Visible gravel?
