Rear wheel bearing then. If its making so much noise and allowing the wheel to move enough to scrub the arch, then get it changed asap. You don't want one of them collapsing on the motorway at 80mph.

I've had my corsa a good month and noticed a wierd vibrating noise from the back left wheel!

I usually notice it during and after high speeds down the motorway, At high speeds its a kind of hum, then as I slow towards an island it makes a vibrating clunky kinda sound.

I've also noticed that there a slight rubbing on the plastic trim inside, but the righthand side is okay! but I know this only happens round sharp corners

anyone know what this could be?
