Location of Sighting: North of Bingham, Nottinghamshire & Radcliffe on Trent
Date of Sighting: 16 July 2009
Time: approx 7.30 am

Witness Statement: Traveling on train from Grantham to Nottingham. I noticed a large square shaped object which appeared to be hovering above a field. It was possibly the size of a house and a dark grey colour! It caught my eye because I catch the same train every day and I have never seen anything like that on my way to work before. I first noticed it on the approach from Aslockton to Bingham station. I managed to take some video footage which I didn't think had worked but once I had played it back later on that day I noticed the square on the horizon. Once we had gone through Bingham it was out of sight. However, when we came out of Radcliffe (which was some 2/3 miles further along the track) and went over the River Trent I saw this large Square in the sky and could not believe what I was seeing! It seemed to be hovering.

It was not a balloon or advertising blimp and was not an aeroplane of any description. I was very shocked by this sighting as I could not explain what it could be.
