Thanks Don, unfortunately I had already tried searching using lsof for anything like that.
In this case it was a mount point that had got itself in a weird state. It was still mounted according to df but wasn't actually mounted so the app was spamming the log in that folder which was now part of /
Got it sorted in the end
Weird that it was showing as mounted when it wasn't though.
