Hi! Clattering noise developed from(I think!)rear brake drum.   Never removed one before,is it difficult?   Thanks.

No, see the handbrake guide

Sounds like the linning has broken away  from the hand brake shoes or possibly 1 of the scuring pins has broken or rusted through.

Guide gives good description of how to deal with,but would expect the inside of the disc/drum to require some cleaning or possibly replacing if broken bits are flying around inside.

Had the same rattling from the rear. I knew it was the handbrake shoes breaking up so went straight to the garage which was lucky as the handbrake failed as I pulled up outside.

When they got it all apart the shoes and assembly were in pieces.
