Thanks Natsman, I'm pretty sure it's not tinnitus, because I've had the
condition for the past 30 odd years. Tinnitus I have can be heard
wherever I am. The low frequency hum, seems to be resonating the
brickwork of my house, as it's inaudible if I go outside and move away
from the house.

For the first few nights I couldn't sleep properly, but since then, I've
just took no note of it.

parts of the country.
It has been ascribed, variously, to eddies in gas pipes, factories,
nearby
diesel generators, or deliberate LF propagation.

Look up "Low Frequency Hum" on the web - some quite surprising
information
is available.

Hello All,

Since last Sunday night (9th October), I've heard a low frequency hum.
It's especially can be heard downstairs. If I go outside, it's less by
the house, but moving away the house, it's inaudible.

The only two nights it wasn't audible was last Wednesday and Thursday
night.

Could the atmosphere be increasing the range of nearby factory noise.
The
nearest factory is about 2 miles away.
