Default Placement of Compost Bin

Dont forget a few buckets of Urine and that if you site it on soil you may
find Rats get in underneath

That is absolutely fine. It may not compost very fast in cold weather
in the winter but, frankly, UK winter sun is so anaemic that it makes
little difference. Open heaps are BETTER located in such positions,
because they dry out less.
