I have to hold my hands up and say I got it the wrong way round! You are right, the newer church is on a EW axis and the bricked up doors (on what I think is the older building) is on a NS axis. I should have realised this as the sun dial at the top of the church was south facing! Big whoops from me!
I'm still having trouble uploading pictures of the carvings - can anyone help me on this as I'd really like to share them with you all.
