A small settlement in Derbyshire has gained international attention due to its connection with sightings of UFOs.
Sometimes the most significant UFO sightings occur in the unlikeliest of places and the small village of Bonsall in Derbyshire, England would certainly seem to fit into this category.
It's not even the sightings themselves that have put this village, which sits at the edge of the Peak District, on the map - what's most surprising is the amount of international attention it has received.
Much of the activity was centered around a two-year period beginning in October 2000 during which there were 19 sightings of unidentified flying objects in the skies over the local area.
One sighting in particular made headline news - that of Sharon Rowlands who managed to capture a strange circular object on camera.
So great was the interest in her footage of the phenomenon that a Hollywood producer reportedly purchased it for over $24,000 and even NASA officials got in touch with her because the object she had filmed matched one spotted during the STS-75 Columbia Space Shuttle mission in 1996.
Sightings reported by other locals included an object described as a "ball of fire", the appearance of two bright lights and even a "pink glow, vertically shaped like a shoe box".
No definitive explanation for any of these sightings was ever found.
