Wondered if any of you have this same rattling noise.....?

If I drive slowly - say up to 25 / 30mph, and on a rough(ish) surface, I can hear this rattling noise coming from somewhere under the car. It's not excessively noisy, but very noticeable with the window down, but cannot be heard with the window up. It kind of reminds me of the noise brake pads / retaining pins would make if the 'anti-rattle' clips were missing. However, the noise doesn't disappear when I apply the brakes.

Anyone got any ideas?
