last one and flummoxed

24A Raises cut poles. I have ?ea?ens and don't get it. Any help gratefully received.

Looks like heavens to me (poles = NS), heave = raises I guess

No, it needs to begin with a different letter... (And Chambers confirm it.)

Leavens then maybe

Yes, that's it.

Yeah so cut = leave there then

30d - Great volume of big bell echo (4)

I have a "great volume" as the answer but can't see the wordplay, specifically where the "big bell" fits in?

TOM=big bell

That's great, thanks Buddy:-)
