Sounds like knackered wheel bearing .

Try driving car then flick the steering both ways to take the load off one side and transfer to the other side and see if noise changes .Sohould work , but not if both sides noisy .Sometimes hard to get it to work if a rear bearing . Watch there are no cops on your tail as you do it , I got pulled up one time on roadtest !!!

Just remembered the o/s driveshaft has a support bearing these can wear. Check that also
