Wales is a nation of the United Kingdom whose UFO record runs from the 1974 Berwyn Mountains explosion and the 1977 Broad Haven school sighting to the 2016 Pentyrch reports.
Wales, the western nation of the United Kingdom, shares Britain's official UFO history: its sighting reports went to the UK Ministry of Defence, which stopped investigating such reports in 2009 and moved its files to The National Archives. The best-known Welsh cases come from rural areas and small villages, and most now have official or scientific explanations on record alongside the UFO accounts.
On the evening of 23 January 1974, residents around Llandrillo in the Berwyn Mountains reported a loud bang and a bright light in the sky. The Institute of Geological Sciences recorded a magnitude 3.5 earthquake felt across north Wales and as far as Formby, near Liverpool, and a bright meteor was widely seen over Wales and northern England that evening. Declassified ministry documents attribute the incident to the earthquake and the meteor together. Ufologists later claimed that a craft had crashed and been recovered by the military, a story some tabloids called "the Roswelsh incident."
Later cases came from across the country. In Pembrokeshire on 4 February 1977, 14 children at Broad Haven Primary School said a yellow, cigar-shaped craft had landed in a field beside the school and that they saw a silver figure; teachers and other witnesses reported the same craft later that month, and the area was nicknamed the Broad Haven or Welsh Triangle. A ministry investigator found no evidence of a landing and suggested "a local prankster" (Broad Haven sightings). In January 1983 metal was reported found on farmland near Llanilar in Ceredigion (Llanilar debris); in 2026 Faith Jones and Adam Corres described university laboratory tests that identified a fragment as man-made space hardware, most likely an aluminium honeycomb panel from an American satellite. In February 2016 Caz Clarke reported a pyramid-shaped craft and smaller objects near Pentyrch, outside Cardiff (Pentyrch incident). According to American Alchemy, press reports linked the military activity in the area to a training exercise, and the ministry refused later Freedom of Information requests about it on defence grounds.
Broad Haven returned to television in Netflix's 2023 series Encounters and in a 2024 BBC Three and BBC Cymru Wales programme, and in 2026 American Alchemy republished Clarke's account. Newer Welsh material in 2026 was mostly online video, such as an April clip of daylight orbs shared by UAP commentators, with no official assessment published. Wales therefore holds two widely retold British cases, Berwyn and Broad Haven, along with a debris claim that has now been tested in a laboratory.
🚨BROAD HAVEN WASN'T THE ONLY BRITISH SCHOOL REPORTING UFOS IN 1977 I've been digging through historical UFO reports involving schools, and I'm beginning to think the famous Broad Haven encounter in Wales was part of a much bigger story that most people have never even heard about. On February 4, 1977, around 15 kids at Broad Haven Primary School reported seeing a silver object in a field behind their playground. Some also described a strange figure wearing a silver suit. But 12 days later, 9...
This video was filmed on Nov 28, 2023 in Tonna, a Village in Neath, Wales, UK. Four month earlier, in the USA, a congressional hearing was held where sworn testimony was given describing a “dark cube within a clear sphere” seen by fighter pilots while on training exercises in a controlled airspace. This is one of the rarer UAP morphologies, although there are reports dating back to 1960 describing this exact object.

Ten years ago a pyramid-shaped craft descended on a field in South Wales in front of multiple witnesses, the military chased down one of the objects that flew out of it, and the British government has been citing national security to refuse questions about it ever since. The key witness went on the record with us. Caz Clarke saw something in February 2016. Military aircraft began circling her village of Pentyrch every fifteen minutes for three straight days, and on the third night a NATO airc...

I usually sit outside when the sky is clear and the weather is favourable. I just love to watch the stars. Recently, I’ve been reading that people can summon UAP while sending out positive messages of appreciation, love and ask for UAP to give a sign. I live in Wales so are sky is pretty undisputed by light pollution. I’ve don’t this several times and not seen anything apart from planes and the passing Satellites. While I was doing the summoning, asking and giving love to the sky asking for s...
