SHOPS = 'grasses' (slang) + with/IN 'hedging' = 'around' 'west of G(reen)'

Yes, just 'sounds like' for 4dn.
CASKETS and PAPISTS also right.
1dn CATS around SKE(w) = 'asymmetrical' [minus w(ith)]
3dn PAP = 'photograph' + IS + edges of T(ackines)S

Many thanks, but could you parse 11ac, please?
SHOPS = 'grasses' (slang) + with/IN 'hedging' = 'around' 'west of G(reen)'
I think it's pretty bad to split 'within' in this way ('with IN') but I don't think Mephisto is as rigorous as AZED
