DETAILS have emerged of a second UFO sighting over Welwyn in the space of just a fortnight.

A witness, known only as James, spotted the strange object in the skies above the village at about 9.55 pm on January 6.

In a report submitted to a paranormal website he wrote: “Whilst waiting for someone standing pretty much outside my front door, I saw an incredibly large and fast flying object, flying straight in the sky.

“The speed it was travelling was amazing.

“It was like a very big low flying plane, with no sound whatsoever.

“However, there's no mistaking this for a plane, it was simply too huge and silent, had no lights at all.

“I’m actually surprised I saw it.”

He added: “It was like a grey outline, shaped like a roof from a child's drawing, except with grooves in the bottom – not the greatest description, I know, but the shape was pretty basic.”

The sighting came just days after Christian Joseph clocked a UFO over Lockleys Farm on Christmas Day.
