Thanks, Quisling. I actually have the Chambers Crossword Dictionary, which is very helpful too, as long as I remember to use it.

Thanks for the help novice and tatters. I was completely wrong about 26 but have it now. Grid completed but will leave endgame until tomorrow.

I have a shape (albeit with clipped points) with a central hole of the same (unclipped) shape.
There are a variety of ways of dividing this shape into n equal smaller shapes.
Assuming I am looking for n x n-letter words from the definitions, what are considered the 'extreme' cells, where I should expect to find the n-letter words? I was hoping that I would be looking for some more one-sided shapes, but it seems not...

All done!

What a great crossword, and a nice tie-in with a recent Magpie.
A good challenge and pleasing endgame.
