My clutch feels to be in a very nice condition, but, upon decelerating, it chirps like a cicada, constant.
Any ideas.

20 mins will have the box on the floor, that'll soon tell ya. Does it go away if you stand on the clutch?

20 mins, crikey your very fast, id say more like a couple of hours from inside me shed.
It only does it when I take my foot off the throttle, quite audible.

Just trying to establish if it is in fact coming from the clutch.

I really have no idea, just had a look under, nothing amiss, regardless of speed/revs or gear, same noise, no audible difference in volume in relation to revs or gear.
It started a few days ago, but it was so very soft as to be almost impossible to tell that it was there, let alone what was causing it.
Now its really there, but where ?

Just keep driving it till it breaks something, then you'll know what it was
