I have a couple of trugs of leaf mould from last years leaves. As well as mulching some of my more tender plants I was thinking I would use as a soil conditioner for part of the garden where the soil is heavy and solid. Should I just put it on too and leave or dig in? Had been thinking I would dig that area a bit anyway once I get the annuals out to break up the soil a bit.

You can do either or both.
The worms should pull some of them down into the soil over winter"Nicos, Queen of Gooooogle" and... GYO's own Miss Marple

Wot Nicos said or the very best thing to do is to make a leaf mould bin ( just 4 posts knocked in and surround with wire and let them break down and then use this like you would peat. If you have room to hide a builders 1 tonne bag then put that some where and fill it up and wait for it to break down.
If you want to save loads of money then leave it till it looks like tobacco and mix it 7pt with Mole hill soil 3pts and sharp sand 1pt and and some JI base fertiliser at the recommended rate and it makes great compost for your tomato pots.
You can do the same with Bracken too.ntg
Never be afraid to try something new.
