could be top mount bearing or CV joint. depending on when does the noise happen.
top mount bearing noise come in when steering only and CV joint noise come in when moving only.
wheel bearing noise is higher pitch and normally happens all the time no matter you are driving striaght or at corner. you can test that by shaking the wheel too.

sounds like CV joint to me. you normally heard the noise when you trying to park up your car.

Phone a few garages to get the best price, but I reckon your looking at about £100 for one side supplied & fitted.
