Remaking a rock garden

Hi lovelies, I'm hoping to pick your collective brains - I have an horrendous "rockery" that was built to infill a pond by the previous owners years ago. It's been completely taken over by weeds and genuinely doesn't deserve to be called a rockery as it has barely any rocks!
It's roughly oval, above lawn level and approximately 6' x 3 1/2'
Gets sun for most of the day (still in the sun now)
I'd like to make it a "proper" feature ( the work involved in digging it out would be...😞)
Please can you suggest layouts/ planting/ lights to bring it up to date?
It's against a fence so I could get some height in there but I don't really want to make the footprint any bigger...
BIG ask but I have faith in you ladies!!!
Thanks in advance x

I'm wondering if I could do a mixed herb/ flower planting? Any suggestions for companion plants?
