Since writing the above I had a flash of inspiration, I reversed the seatpost so now it is set forward. It tilts up a bit at the front but a quick spin around the block and I was comfortably sitting square on the saddle for the first time ever! Bike looks a bit strange now though, I'll have to try a zero setback post see if that is as good.
I don't think the frame is too big, I'm 5'9" and the frame is a 51cm about as small as they come and knee was above pedal but it just wasn't comfortable for me, I must have a peculiar stroke, oo er missus!
