gave similar ages; 2350yr [@Lasker80], and 2500yr [@Vogt11].

Although most optical studies have concentrated on the fast-moving O- and Ne-rich ejecta [@Lasker80; @Blair00; @Vogt11], there are a number of luminous, dense shock clouds with apparently ‘normal’ interstellar composition and $\sim200$km/s velocity dispersion. The most prominent of these is the so-called *Lasker’s Bowl* structure in the northern part of the remnant, but HST imaging [@Blair00] reveals many other small complexes of shocked cloudlets. These clouds do not show appreciable enhancements in the strength of the \[\] lines, and are thought to be simply ISM clouds over which the SNR blast wave has recently swept. In this paper we follow the study of N49 by @Dopita16 in investigating the degree of dust destruction in these cloud shocks. We also derive the physical parameters for some 20 different shocked ISM cloudlets and estimate their chemical abundances.

Observations & Data Reduction {#sec:obs}
=============================

The integral field spectra of N132D were obtained between 16 Nov 2017 and 24 Nov 2017 using the Wide Field Spectrograph (WiFeS) [@Dopita07; @Dopita10], an integral field spectrograph mounted on the 2.3-m ANU telescope at Siding Spring Observatory. This instrument delivers a field of view of 25$\times$ 38at a spatial resolution
