1996 Other Rover Models

Hi I have a Rover 414 P - reg, 1.4ltr, When I release the clutch I can hear a single knocking noise coming from the back of my car, I also have a kind of grinding noise which is coming from the front of my car, this started happening about a week ago and the noise has got quieter and does not seem to happen as often as when it first started, it can happen at any time, either braking, accerlarating, coasting etc, I was wondering if some1 might be able to tell me what they think this might be please? I don't think the 2 are linked?
Many Thanks
