Creative person finding outlet in wrought iron (8)
I believe the answer is:
inventor
'creative person' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'outlet in wrought iron' is the wordplay.
'outlet' becomes 'vent' (I've seen this before).
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'wrought' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'iron' with letters rearranged gives 'inor'.
'vent' inserted into 'inor' is 'INVENTOR'.
'finding' is the link.
(Other definitions for inventor that I've seen before include "Innovator, creator" , "Person with idea" , "Designer" , "Author" , "Creator of new devices" .)
