Maybe a Redwing call? Often heard from birds going over at night in October/November time.

Now this is weird! In the garden the other night and a sound came out of the lilac bush. It was kinda like stones rubbing together,you know like stonechat(a bogey bird for me,still not seen one) but the only birds in my garden are sparrows and Starlings. Never heard it before!

If it's at night, probably a tawny owl. Not the t-woo bit, but the t-wit. Two different calls, one does the t-wit, the other answers with the t-woo.
Could be a dunnock - a bit like a squeaky wheel. If your place has a lot of street lighting around, it could well be a wren, as mentioned in above post, as our wren is often singing after dark.
