Default loud grinding noise when lifting clutch to engage gear

Hello i'm having an issue with my X type

When it first occurred the clutch pedal stuck to the floor and I had to pull it back up with my foot.

Pedal is fine now

All gears engage fine with the engine off

Once engine is running gearbox still goes into gear no problem

But when you release the clutch to start moving it makes a loud whining grinding noise, judders slightly then pulls off

Then this repeats with every ear change but noise is reduced a lot after first.

Brake fluid level is normal, I understand clutch shares this fluid?

Anyone have any idea? hoping its not the clutch itself.

Thanks in advance guys

Jay

Clutch assy needs replacement...Pressure plate, Clutch disc, throw-out bearing.
