Default What depth of bark chippings?

Well, the grass has been sprayed and will be dead soon. Our tiny,
pointless front lawn will be no more soon. It, and the borders will be
replaced with a layer of weed cloth and bark chippings (I detest gravel
gardens). Since we left our gardening books back in NZ and my memory is
hazy what depth of bark is effective for weed control?

For those interested the lawn will be replaced with a mixture of dwarf
conifers, ornamental flaxes and heathers (and maybe a sundial). We are
in Dundee, near the coast.
