Standing under the lytchgate opposite the pub, you are far more likely to be struck by a car there as the road narrows and no one takes that corner slowly. I think the count from memory is 14 times that wall/lytchgate has been demolshed.
Of course the Boys' Brigade marches have traffic control marshalls, so it's not surprising you've not had an accident. Long queues of children crossing the busy road from the church hall to the church is a different matter. It has frightened me on more than one occasion to see accidents almost occuring. Perhaps your comment about the lychgate and crashes makes my point.
