1978 – MAYHILL, SWANSEA

The witness, Jeffrey Jones, who had seen a bright cigar-shaped object over Swansea Bay one cold morning this year, learned from a neighbour that something was over his house, not long after.

One night after 11 PM, a family who lived opposite his house, 18 Eigen Crescent, Mayhill, were sitting chatting in their living room. 19-year-old Jan was the first to see a flat silver disc hovering over the roof of Jeff’s house across the street.

It was small enough to be able to land in Jeff’s front garden if it had wanted to.

She called her sister and brother-in-law. As they got to the window they all saw the object shoot straight up into the sky.

They excitedly ran across the street and banged on Jeff’s door to tell him what they had seen.

They spent the next few nights watching out but did not see anything else.
