Is it possible for this small job

A very small part of my driveway was not concreted over when the house was built. I would like to lay pebbles down on that portion as it is very overgrown and unsightly. Would this be possible.

"Yes can be shingled with the right sub base underneath. Would need excavating to a a depth of 6/8 inches over the area needed then laying a membrane to stop weed and movement. 20ml crushed stone and Consolidated with wracked plate and then laying shingle over the top. If the grounds soft for any reason when it rains. This would be the best solution. Thanks"
