4.30 PM.

A husband and wife, their neighbour and a paperboy saw a single brilliant light, saucer-shaped with a slightly orange glow. It appeared to be in 'orange-like segments'. It was located above the mountains, in which direction is not reported, but probably to the north-west or north, as Newport is bounded by the sea to the south, low hills to the east and west.

The object, which was moving very slowly in one direction, was also viewed through binoculars and a photograph was taken.
