Sometimes, the large circlip that secures the boot to the cv joint is not a tight enough fit and grease gets pushed out from there at higher road speeds due to centrifugal force.......
If you are anywhere near Wellington, Somerset i can take a look for you before you return to Manchester.

No, the cv wouldnt squeal, they usually make a loud 'crackling/clicking' noise when on full lock.

Was probably only a road chipping wedged between the caliper and disc. To check the boots, jack it up and while on full lock turn the wheel slowly while inspecting the 'stretched' boot, look for splits in the folds of the boot.
