Banging sound in roof near old chinmey

Hi, I have a banging sound that’s driving me insane in my roof. I live on the top floor of a tenement. It’s in the bedroom and the noise appears to be where there is an old chimney- and only when it’s windy. Our usual roofer has been up there but can’t find anything- he’s tied up the Ariel cables, which we initially thought was the problem. Nothing noticeable in the attic- I’ve also been up there and can’t actually hear it so much in that space. It’s driving me absolutely mad- as can’t sleep when it’s banging. I can only think it must be something inside the chimney- but have no idea what. Any advice would be very welcome!!
