Cryptic crossword No 3,507

Thanks Four5tring, this was a cracker! A grid with this many long words brings its own challenges, including keeping the anagram count down. But you’ve managed it all very expertly with some fine individual clues, my pick being 9a, 10a, 13a, 16a! 1d, 5d, 6d, 7d, 14d. And nothing I can think of to write under the line! Congrats 🙌

Thanks Four5tring, that was fun with excellent, coherent surfaces throughout. My pick of all of your well-crafted clues has to be 5d for the chuckle it brought.
