I'd like to plant some very low-growing ground cover as a fill in
between the stones to give it that old English garden path feel.

Just let moss grow between the stepping stones.

you can encourage moss by creating an acidic environment. One thing
you can do to help innoculate the area is to make a moss milkshake.
Find some moss growing in similar conditions (the full sun) where you
are allowed to collect it (or noone will care... like an uncarred
for parking lot) and mix it with buttermilk in a blender. (find a used
one if you don't want to use the "food" one.) Paint this slurry onto
the areas you want to become mossy, and keep lightly misted until the
moss takes hold.

Mind this doesn't give you flowers...
how about creeping (Thymus serpyllum) or wooly (T. pseudolanginosus)?

do a google search for thyme for more info.
