Default squeaking at the front when turning right..

it started happening a while back, when was going round a roundabout with a bit of speed, normall cornering was fine, as i think was going oo slow for it to occur, to start with i assumed was tyres sqealing abit..
but now has started squealing when turning right..
any ideas?? i saw somewhere that could be wheel bearing?
cheers in advance

It does sound like the wheel bearing to me. Going round a roundabout at speed would put pressure on it, causing it to make a noise. Could have got worse.

Not that expensive at all
