Across
1. Take "PACES" and move its back to the start. It becomes SPACE (location).
6. "Hides" indicates a hidden word. "Gentle monk" contains the word LEMON (sour fruit).
7. "Disarray" indicates an anagram. Change "PET IN" to form INEPT (clumsy).
8. This is a charade using an abbreviation. "Staffs" means MANS. English is abbreviated E. Together they form MANSE (parsonage).
9. This clue has two meanings: "senior" and "church officer." The answer is ELDER.
Down
1. "About" indicates an anagram. Change SMILE into SLIME (mud).
2. "Lines" indicates a hidden word. The word PENAL (meaning disciplinary) lines the phrase "happen also."
3. If we take ADMEN and move the second letter to the last position, it becomes AMEND (rewrite).
4. "Reported" indicates a homophone. "Police officers" are cops, which sounds like COPSE (thicket).
5. This clue has two meanings: "record" and "key to computer." ENTER is a computer key, and to enter an item on a list is to record it.
