When I still lived with my Grandma, she had a big (2-3 cu. meter) brick compost. It was built around 1970 with leftover materials from the house, and was supposed to be for trash. When regular trash service came to neighborhood it became a compost. It sits on a concrete slab, the top is also concrete, the walls brick, so it keeps warmth pretty well (cats like to sleep in there in late fall).

When I moved in with my Wife I felt lonely without a compost pile, so I bought a 400-liter plastic compost box. I still miss the brick compost though...
