The summer of 1981 brought another eerie encounter, this time in Bingley, West Yorkshire. Beryl Petty, a local resident, reported seeing a large, silver disc hovering silently above her as she walked through the glens of Bingley with her husband.

Beryl, who had a background in meteorological work during the Second World War, was no stranger to unusual weather phenomena. However, she was certain that what she saw that day was not a weather balloon or any other conventional aircraft. "I thought there would be some burning as the thing appeared to be so bright, but it was calm and smelled nothing. My husband said the same," Beryl recalled.
The sighting was reported in the Aberdeen Press and Journal, but officials were unable to provide any explanation for the mysterious object. The incident left Beryl and her husband with more questions than answers, adding another chapter to the mysterious encounters in the UK.
