Whistle noise every few minutes - between Landcroft road and Lordship lane

[Kp1987]

Hi ED, I live on Landcroft road, and from the windows of the back of the property you can hear a whistling noise in the area (sounds like a faulty boiler but louder) occurring every 5-10 minutes for a few seconds. It has been happening for the past week at least. It does not seem to come from the immediate homes around. Does anyone know what this is or where it is coming from?

Thanks!

Hi.  I remember seeing numerous posts like this over the years, and don't recollect a single one in which someone's replied: "Oh yes, it's ...".  In fact I don't remember seeing even a single report of someone going out and trying to locate the noise themselves.  I think I do remember suggesting the use of a cardboard tube as direction-finding aid if they do, as I know that some sounds and frequencies are difficult to locate by direction using ears alone.  But I'm still looking forward to one day reading the news of a mystery noise unmasked.

It’s a stove top kettle.
