Does that ladder lead somewhere? If so, does it lead up or down?

The ladder is loosely place against the wall.

(I might have described that a bit poorly, the pipe is in the cleft and a slope leads down to it)

You grab the ladder and move it over to the pipe climbing down the slope... you look into the pipe, it appears to turn eastwards.

Odd.

What do the statues look like? Is there anything on the table?

The statues appear to be depictions of the gods Kelemvor and Lathander, the table is bare save for dry blood and candlewax.
Makdt comes up from the pipe and sees you examining the table, reverently she explains "Tables like these are used for funerary rites for the dead, they symbolize the passing from life to death and the temple's oath to keep the dead from the hands of necromancers...", she looks to you regretful perhaps for your state of being.

"A wor-thy oath! But I am glad no-one kept me under such oath... think of the things I should not have seen, lying in a crypt such as this!"

Head through the south door.

"A wor-thy oath! But I am glad no-one kept me under such oath... think of the things I should not have seen, lying in a crypt such as this!", Makdt is a bit uneasy about your stance on undeath but is understanding.

You open the door cautiously; to a stone hallway lit by torch-like lights recessed into the walls, a simple undecorated tiled floor stretches out to the far end where there seems to be some renovations.

Is there any mortar or grout between the tiles? What sort of "renovations" lie at the end of the hall?

The tiles appear well fixed in place, there has been a constructed wall made of rock debris mortared into place blocking off what may have been a collapsed section of the hall.

Is that a door at the south end of the hallway? If so, try it.

You cautiously cross the hallway and check the door; it opens to a dimly lit stonework hallway, a wooden stairway ascends into light at the far end.
