I can't work out whether I am being completely stupid here. There are four four letter clues. One I think is a divided eight. The others are O and Y, both of which I have right, but I can't fit in the grid at all.
If the grid has been correctly filled the French word for North should be in the top NW corner (4 letters). Symmetrically 'South' ( 3 letters) are SE corner.
East (3 letters) and West (5 letters) are side left & side right respectively.
