Noise from rear when going over bumps!

Is it my springs, shocks or top mounts?

Also how much am i looking at for replacement parts?

Is it a knocking?
If so my guess would be drop links. Go under your car and grab hold of one of them and try and wiggle it, do the same with the other one.#
Is there any play in them? There should be none.
Mine were the same last month so I changed them for some whiteline ones. About 40 quid.
I'd try them before anything else.
