Grinding noise from front driver side?

Hi All

B5.5 4Motion Tdi Estate.

Every wheel rotation on the front right (when car is rolling) there is a grinding noise with every rotation.

If I jack up the car and spin the wheel, no noise is heard.

Nothing is rubbing on the driveshaft or wheels.

It sounds metallic - its not a nice sound.

No knocking on full lock. But can it be a CV joint?

Its been doing it for weeks and doesn't seem to be anything stuck between disc and pad (no scoring on disc)

The discs and pads are probably 6 months old.
