Hi Brendan - in repsonse to your first comments. The large anagram does work on anagram solver as long as you remove the correct letters from the anagram words, although solver not really needed for this clue.

Excellent puzzle thoroughly enjoyed.

Enjoyed this one. The first one I'm close to finishing for a few weeks!

I'm struggling to parse 4dn though. Pretty sure I have the right answer, but the letters to 'strew' aren't all the odd ones?

Spurred on by the enthusiastic comments here, I gave this a go. It's taken a lot of my day, but I'm there apart from 22a and 20d.
If I'm right, 20d looks like it should be plural while the clue seems it should be singular. But my potential answer doesn't give me any way of resolving 22a....

it's "wreck", not "strewn"; the latter is the anagrind. you may have the wrong first letter!

20 answer is singular (though could also be plural, like "fish"...)
