Default Clicking from rear

I have a clicking sound coming from the rear of the ZT. The sound increases in frequency with speed, becoming like a buzzing sound. The best I can describe it is like the regular noise you hear if there is a stone caught in a tyre, clicking as it rotates.
I've checked and there isn't anything in the tyre treads. Has anyone had this happen to them and does anyone know what it might be please?
At the moment I'm thinking hub and/or handbrake somehow?
Any advice greatly appreciated,
Thank you

Sounds like the handbrake shoes have become detached. Usually caused by the pins pulling through the back plate.
