1dn. Put up with over time (7,4).
I've got most of the letters and I'm guessing it's "quarter past" but I don't understand why. Is it just a crap clue? Or can someone explain?

Put up - Quarter, give someone/something room/space/accommodation
Over time - Past, (time that's over, gone)
Quarter and/with Past, Quarter Past.

My parsing of the Past part is nonsense, sorry. It's just as Dja... says.
