On 1981 May 25, at 2217 UT, a brilliant fireball was observed to cross southern England and South Wales. Observations were received from an area covering the whole of southern England, the Midlands and as far north as Lancashire and Yorkshire, together with a large number from South Wales. The fireball travelled on a heading of 311 passing directly over Christchurch (Hants) and Cardiff. It descended at an angle of 15 . When first observed it was at a height of about 100 km and extinction took place just west of Llandeilo (Dyfed) at a height of 12 km.
