Sounds like my old disco td5 lift the wheels up to check for play and nothing couldn’t get it to sound better or worse when cornering and also quietened down at speed but was extremely noisy when driving at and below town speed. It was a wheel bearing on the front.
It was strange as it just appeared one morning. The night before everything was quiet then it was suddenly there. You could only tell the bearing had gone when it was off and spun off the vehicle.

Already checked the wheel bearings no play at all & no vibration when holding the spring

those unit type bearings are usually noisy long before any play can be felt

If its only a bearing happy days, definitely no play in it.
I just checked the service history it had an osf bearing in 2016 & covered 16K since bearing cost £427.00
wonder if it was a genuine LR item or the garage buying in a cheapo & costing out oem.
