Removing very old shrubs

we have recently inherited a garden containing some very old shrubs, mostly Berberis, and one of which has sent up shoots between large  paving slabs.  Digging out the roots is not an option.  Suggestions please as to how to destroy it

    You could use SBK brushwood killer but the likelihood is that it will travel back through the roots and kill the main plant too.
