some advice please

I was about just under 2 stone overweight. Over the last 5 weeks I've been eating alot healthier (my diet was TERRIBLE) and hitting the gym for about 2 hours a week.

End result is I've lost just under a stone in 5 weeks I've noticed a curious thing. My legs have built up a serious amount of muscle and my moobs have disappeared too :D:D:D . However, my stomach (which looks like a typical beer belly) hasn't decresed in size at all and still looks bloated (for want of a better phrase)

Is there any particular machine in the gym , exercise I can do to work on that area in particular to get it down (don't really care about toning or anything).

At the moment my hourly gym routine is 15 mins on treadmill , 15 on the bike , 15 on rowing machine and 15 doing weights.

So any advice very much appreciated

Short and simple answer is no you can't spot reduce fat in an area by doing a specific excercise.

I'd say you probably need to at least double the amount of hours you spend in the gym. After 5 weeks you are likely to be used to to your routine now, so unless you are making gains in the weights you are lifting you may be levelling off now.

You say you do 15 mins weights. That's a bit vague, what are you doing? Also posting a typical days diet is a good idea to see if you can make any further improvements (see the nutrition stickies). Diet is an important factor in the fight against the beer belly
