You could run HSRP between the backbone router on the primary link and the
on-site router on the secondary link, which will work for the outbound.

Inbound, you'd need to make sure you have link state forwarding on the LAN
extension, so that if there's a fault on the site-to-PoP portion, or
someone unplugs from the switch, the corresponding interface on the
backbone router goes down and the connected route is withdrawn.

Good luck on the second, I've yet to have this working reliably, and
always look to run a dynamic routing protocol over 'Ethernet WAN' links.

My preference would be to put something like an 1811 in - either instead
of the switch, or as well as if you need to maintain a managed switch. 
It's not that expensive, and it'll handle 10Mb/s of normal traffic fine
(ie probably not 10Mb/s of 64 byte packets with NAT and NBAR and QoS and
ACLs and...)

878 supports BGP fine.  It can't hold a full table, but it'll certainly
take a default via BGP (and probably your own customer routes, if that's
needed).
