96 Micra rumbling grinding noise whilst clutch is engaged.

My 96 (N) micra makes a rumbling grinding noise whilst running. It
sounds similar to a noisy bearing like a wheel bearing or siezed on
caliper thats rubbing on the brake disk.

The engine sounds fine in nuetral you can rev it and it sounds normal.

When you drive off the noise starts, if you press in the clutch it
stops. It happens in all gears

Any ideas?

Throw-out bearing?
