Thank you both - i will suggest both of these actions today. However, based on my discussions i think it is the caliper issue.
You live and learn and the mechanic is a stand up guy.

Hi,
I took my car to my local garage (who has served me well for years!) to have a service and replace my brake pads.
However, he has had for three days because the car now warns "parking brake service required" and has high volume beeping noise.
Is anyone able to advise how to resolve...
