Bag of spanners noise from rear

After driving enthusiastically today and going over a large hump on the road the rear end of the car is knocking and sounding like a bag of spanners on slight bumps.
Exhaust seems fine, any ideas?

exhaust hangers deserve another check and brake dust covers
check brake lines are in situ

Also check heat shield above the back box. Every one of them have come loose on me on all 5 mk5 golfs I've owned.

Got my local mechanic to inspect it today and it has a snapped nearside front coil spring. I could have sworn the noise was coming from the rear! I guess they were in need of being replaced anyway seeing as it only took a large hump in the road to break it.
