MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) crackling sound

Ive got a macbook pro 2014 running MACos mojave. Its crackling from the top right of the keyboard. At first I thought it was the speaker but I cant turn it down and further if I plug in headphones it doesn't stop the sound emitting. Could it be the fan?

That is the only other moving object.


Does it change pitch with rpm changes?
