Thanks, dylan.

40 clues, but 52 entries, so presumably 12 un-clued entries. If all 52 entries are real words does that mean that the jumbled entries are, in fact, anagrams of the answers to their clues, or does a jumbled entry still count as a real word?

When words are jumbled do they form new words? This seems likely from the penultimate sentence.

Perhaps not as I can’t anagramise some answers

The title suggests to me that there is a building which defies the impossible in the grid? Or am I barking?

Finally over the line having made very heavy weather of this, cold solving almost every clue before I twigged what was going on.

I think the title basically alludes to the fact that as a 'normal' crossword this would be an impossible construction. That said it is a highly impressive puzzle and (joy of joys!) totally unambiguous in the finale.

I interpreted the title as a reference to a phrase which includes part of the construction’s name and one of the unclued words, and means to attempt an impossible task?

Any hints on these 3 please:

More unsettling French and English article lives experiencing setback (8)

Area in which almost all elite dons get on (7)

Most recent brackets even up wardrobe in nursery (7)

Thanks.

Just figured out Area in which...

Hadn't thought of that Loge, could be right. We'll never know!
