You haven't missed a letter out of this have you?

I've a bit of a reputation for "duff" clues, but I'm pretty sure this one is good having checked it a few more times!

OK, well how about Southrn Chamber - without an e ? Or a couple I've ever heard of: Nuroths Chamber or Hutrons Chamber?
But there again, it may not even feature a Chamber!?

Oops - sorry, I did of course mean to say 'I've never heard of' .

Close - but no cigar! The clue is, however, a bit of an illusion anyway.

Too big clue! Rushton Chamber - which I have heard of, a while ago mind you...

Struggling? Well just to make it even easier here it is:

I dunno, give them something in the Northern Dales and the silence is deafening!
