Default Cow muck?

I have just been given 2 tonne of cow muck that's been rotting down for just
3 months. My back garden consists of nothing but grass. We want to put some
large borders in and keep just a small area of grass. Do I dig the muck in,
place it on top of the newly dug out borders, or leave it to rot down. The
soil isn't brilliant and has never been fed or had plants in for 4 years
although there are plenty of worms in it. I would say it was a little clay
if anything, we live near the Quantocks in Somerset and the soil is reddish
in colour not the normal brown stuff.

Thanks for the advice
Simon
