Halo-shaped craft

A55 Dobshill interchange: Scene of halo ufo sighting

Last updated: 29 April 2008

UFO investigator Margaret Fry recounts another bizarre sighting in an area known for its strange goings on

A pair of mobile party DJs could not believe their eyes when they saw a UFO above them as they were travelling near the Dobshill turn-off of the A55 Expressway.

It was between 1-2am and they were on the roundabout beneath the A55 which is near the Chester-Flintshire border when they saw a white circle-shaped object in the sky.

According to the friends it was well defined and an orange halo around its outer edge. The object appeared to be floating in the direction towards Chester.

The UFO then seemed to stop - at which point the glow of the orange disc appeared to intensify. This lasted for just a few seconds before the object disappeared.

The men said the craft appeared to be directly above the Dobshill turn-off of the A55 which is busy during the day with traffic leaving the dual-carriageway bound for Wrexham and Buckley in one direction and Hawarden and Queensferry to the other.

It should be pointed out that this scene is close to Hawarden Airport and British Areospace's Broughton factory. Private jets and light aircraft use the airport and factory's unusual-looking Beluga aircraft is a common sight in the skies above.
