What surface shall we put the run on?

We got chickens about 5 weeks ago, and have been moving their igloo coop and run around the grass in the garden. They destroy each patch, so we are now thinking of keeping them permanently in one place. Shall we just put them on the grass, or would it be better to put a surface down for them, and should we put chippings or something down?

Like this, so it keeps the wood chip in the same area.

How do you clean wood chip? Do you wash it?
