There is this odd, almost metallic,noise outside the house. I can hear it in the kitchen, but it is loudest out the front. I have no idea where it is coming from, and no idea what it is.

I recorded it on my iPhone, and there is some wind buffeting going on - but what can it be? It's around 23:30 when I noticed it.

Sounds like the cables inside a lamppost vibrating in the wind. Either that or a house alarm from very far away being carried in the wind. :)

TBH I'm going with the alarm theory, it sounds very whiny to me.

Two people here think it's an alarm.

Do you have anarmy base/range a few miles away, or a major installation(power station/nuclear). Could be a warning siren/firw alarm

No. Closest army base is Colchester. Closest nuclear station at Bradwell.

Is there a railway line anywhere near? I have one about 2Km away, and when they work on the lines I get a similar noise.

I am disappointed that you didn't chime in sooner. I am not disappointed by your answer, though. :D

Paul, perhaps it's Bratty and his über loud air-raid siren?

I have an image of him running around the fields betwixt here and Harlow, mouth wide open emitting a pitiful wail. It is a disturbing, and slightly terrifying image.
