If it was me matey I'd check:
-chain for any tight links.
-chainring and sprocket for any chips on the teach.
-make sure the crank is securely bolted to the bottom bracket.
-if your running brakes brake cables by the wheel.
-and check the chain line (image from google attached) because if your chainline is off it might be catching, which might be causing the clicking.
Put the bike on it's seat and handlebars and run the pedals round see if that helps you locate the clicking better maybe?
There are probably a load more things that could cause the sound but if none of those seem to be causing it I'd take it somewhere that knows more about fixed gear like brick lane bikes or something, I'm sure they'd have a look for you. I'm gonna be around London on sat for the spfg ride so could meet you a bit earlier if you'd like some help? Drop me a pm.
Hope that helps you out! Sorry for filling up the feed too
