Be patient. If you don't know what they are, why do you think you have to
get rid of them? There may be something of interest there.
I wouldn't rotavate without knowing what's there. If you've got ground
elder or bindweed, rotavating will make matters worse.
If I were you, and knew nothing about gardening ( I may not...), I would
try
to contact my local horticultural society and ask them for advice. I am
sure there will be some friendly and knowledgable people there who would
relish a chance to look at a garden left to run wild, and offer opinions
on
what could be done with it.
