| Remarks | My sister was with me so she's helped confirm the details, I've worked out the time because I took a photo of the stars later in the road (we were walking down into Winchelsea and it was on our left above the marsh side) so I sued the time of the photo to the spot we were at on Google maps but because we were just before where it opens up clear, the trees were still on our left (we were on the right side of the road though) but means that blocked our real horizon) and also means the time is an estimate but a pretty accurate one Also means the sea/beach was over the hill on our right and was pretty loud waves last night so could have blocked out any sounds (I was also being pretty loud to try make her feel less scared of the dark walk to be honest) |

| Fragmentation | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | It looked like a huge bright ball of white surrounded by orange light of fire shooting down (the "tail" was the more orange part but even that was really bright) and it got slightly dimmer like it was burning out and then suddenly got BRIGHT again as if it had been "reignited" (sorry, I don't this stuff but apparently that is what fragmentation looks like) |
