The water pump is belt driven, which is why it got hot - that and I had the luck to get stuck behind a Fiesta that had an enormous box in the boot, and was therefore driving at 15 mph, so I had very little airflow through the engine bay. AA chap reckons the engine will be fine as I stopped the second the car told me too, but we shall see.
