Default Volvo V50 n/s front knock noise

Please can anyone help me diagnose a knock noise on my 2011 Volvo v50,
It only happens at low speed when I break coming to a stop also turning the wheel hard right in reverse at low speed I can a clunk coming from the near side front wheel area, it sounds like something is loose and moving, I've already changed the gearbox mount and bracket for new, & also had a new near side drive shaft fitted but still the clunk happens.
Its passed the MOT with no advisories, I've checked the bottom bracket, arms, drop links, spring and suspension but can't see any movement in them so I am at a complete blank? If anyone could point me some advice I'd be very grateful.

If you get the thump when dabbing the brakes on and off quickly at 10 mph its the big bush on the rear of the front wishbone .
