Squeeking

Car  Golf GTD Mk7
Hi guys, been driving this morning and noticed a loud 'bird like' squeeking from the passenger side front wheel. (no i've already checked for wayword birds :) )Its all the time while moving? Could it be the brakes sticking, or something to do with the drive shaft? I'm stumped. It does seem to quieten when braking, but is more prominant when turning left.
 
sounds daft, but a loose upper gearbox mount (under battery) will make a similar sounding noise - although usually intermittently i'd have thought

possibly the wheel bearing?
 
It doesn't sound like a wheel bearing while driving, but when heavy braking, it does sounds similar to a wheel bearing issue.
 
It means that the brake is always gripping the disc slightly, jack that wheel up and see if you can spin the wheel freely.
