Apart from powerwashing a cobblelock driveway, are there are other suggestions?

Have you tried powerwashing?
I use the powerhose on my cobblelock every couple of years.
Looks amazing afterwards

Powerhosing with a GOOD powerhose (you can rent one) works REALLY well, but you'll need to have sand to brush back into the spaces because the water will blast a LOT of it out - along with the weeds, moss and weed seeds.

powerhose and then brush a concrete sealer on it,it will bring back a little of the colour to it and then whenits fully dried brush a bag of silca sand in to the joints.
