I have something that goes "clonk" occasionally as well have it on both drivers and passenger side - and have had it for about 3 years and never found out what it is!
It's not just over bumps but hear it on corners also. I emptied the boot and also took out spare tyre etc in case it was that moving around - but no..

the driveshaft bolts make an axle ping/knocky sound or possibly engine/gearbox mounts

Offside engine mount. When it loses a lot of rubber, not only does it knock but it also causes the car to lurch in bends.
Other than that, your shocks may well be the culprit. NEVER have I owned a car so resistant to knock diagnosis. And I can't remember a time when I wasn't trying to diagnose one knock or another. I live in a constant state of apprehensive curiosity. You say 'top bush' - but when my strut top-mount (lower section/rubber seat) went, it made a fearful amount of banging.
