Glyn one more thing, I just saw your helpful photo and the ingredients are all too large & loose, need squashing against each other so that cold air cannot enter, and to retain moisture, and speed breakdown.
When adding, chop/cut/break lumps and long pieces of anything.
As others say, the sides need lining.
By spring, looks unlikely to me unless you are more thorough.
