Hi James...it seems to be pointing at the n/s wheel bearing because the wheel should rotate freely and silently...the fact that it's getting worse is cause for prompt action. Personally, I wouldn't bother with the clean and repack exercise as it sounds (no pun intended) like it's gone too far for that.
If you have a reasonable workshop at home, the job is pretty easy and there are any number of You Tube videos you can watch to help you through the process. Obviously a local mechanic/workshop should be able to do it for you without a fuss. A tip to save you some cash, if you outsource the job...remove the hub yourself, give it a clean and then take it to the repair shop...if you have the new bearings at hand, the job will be much quicker and cheaper. Some bearings will pop straight out with a little help with a brass drift (or a six inch section of broom handle) and go back just as easily, but I've had some which needed a hydraulic press.
Sorry I can't help with a link, but I'm sure someone on here can point you in the right direction.
Give some thought to doing both sides at the same time...might save you some time down the line a bit.
Lets know how you go.
