And on a related note - I am putting a path the length of my garden to my green
house and so will be lifting a load of turf. The turf is firmly backed with
some top quality clay. If I shove it on my compost heap will nature do its work
or will I still have strips of turf in there at the end of the year?

Nature will do its work. Might take a full year to do it, but it will.
