(Home) Front knocking

I have a 1991 Town Ace. Recently I have heard a knocking in the front left side when going over sharp bumps or when turning. I have checked under the front and have found nothing to be loose, but I still hear a solid thud over bumps or when turning (not in full lock). Any help is appreciated.

Probably be a ball joint also check for badly worn bushes at the base of the shock absorber. Could also be steering arm bushes
