Default Faint knock/rattle from rear on rough pavement?

I did search and I can't seem to pinpoint what could cause this, but on my 08 I'm getting a slight noise from the rear at low speed. In essence when rolling at low speed in gear or with clutch pushed in I hear a slight rattle or knocking noise coming from the rear of the car, though I don't think it's the hatch lid.

What areas should I check and/or anything this commonly is?

Frequently it's the sway bar end links. Lots of discussions if you care to search a little.

Thats what my issue was. Used to hear a faint clunking noise at very low speeds.
