Nasty clutch noise

OK, no noises while idling in neutral.
As soon as I pushed the clutch pedal down, I get some pretty unhappy noises. Kinda whirring, scraping noises. It was really bad at first, but has almost entirely stopped now. While it's in neutral or in gear it's fine - it's only while the pedal is held in.
I have a brass button clutch - could it just be bedding in? Does bed-in occurr with the pedal pressed in, or does it only happen as the clutch takes up in-gear?
I really hope I put the clutch in the right way. I'm 95% sure I put the big chunky part inside the pressure plate, and the flat side to the flywheel.
Just say I did get it wrong. Would the noises get better like mine has, or would it always sound really bad?
I took the car for a run around the block with no problems at all. Take-up is fine, drives fine. It's just making lots of bad noises... though not so much now as it was at first. Barely noticeable now, but still there none-the-less.
