Just supposing it is this circuit., and just supposing it is an immersion heater, wouldn't the constant 2kWh of usage produce some noticeable heat? And @RedBeard89 has a combi - no immersion tank at all.

When Redbeard stated "FYI I believe the property previously had a water tank/immersion heater which was subsequently removed and replaced with a combi boiler." my ears pricked up. Perhaps there is still a hot water tank somewhere in the loft that the OP is blissfully unaware of - perhaps the combi is not even hooked up to the hot water supply? Not sure at all with anything about the OP's dwelling.....
I await news as to whether this is the rogue circuit causing this constant drain on the OP's meter of circa 2kW per hour.
Would it create heat? - probably (almost certainly) but it might be dissipated it the attic without the OP even being aware of it.
Hopefully the OP will now determine what is happening with all of their circuits and report back.
Would an insulated immersion heater draw a constant 2kWh? I'm not convinced, but as always prepared to admit it when I wrong (well I hope that last part is true!)

It certainly could if the thermostat had failed...
So from the @RedBeard89 post above its not the !6A circuit- can we agree on this now that its a faulty meter? Please, pretty please? I don't often beg..........

16A circuit not the culprit for sure. I am assuming that, at some point @RedBeard89has performed the same testing with just one of his other circuits switched off and gets the same 2KWh usage in 1 hour irrespective.
