Further sockets in the house are daisy chained. Disconnect them one at a
time starting with the nearest one, and test again.


Better still, if there are a lot of them, disconnect the last
half. If the fault disappears, Check again half way between
there and the end, if it doesn't, go back halfway to the
beginning. Repeat as required.


Yup. Lots of ways. But you can guarantee it will be the last one you go to
which has the fault.
