Backlash in gearbox, shafts?

Hi, I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this problem...

I get a clunk when setting off or stopping from low speed. The CV joints are quiet at full lock and straight, no noticeable noises from suspension and car drives very well for its age!

I've managed to recreate the noise by sticking it in gear and rocking the car back and forward, noise isn't there when out of gear. Jacked each side up and found I can turn each wheel back and forth while in gear a good few inches before it stops. Possible backlash in the gearbox? Was hoping someone else could see if there's does the same? Cheers.
