People across Barnsley have reported seeing a 'meteor' light up the sky on Friday.

 

It was seen by people in Cudworth and Lundwood, to Pogmoor and Barugh Green.

 

Hannah Taylor and her husband Mark, saw a 'flaming object' over Pogmoor just before 11pm.

 

Hannah said: "It was dropping debris all the time and we wondered if it was an aeroplane in trouble or a piece of space junk that had fallen to Earth.

 

"The eerie thing was that it made no noise."

 

It was first thought the ball of light was a meteorite, but is now thought to have been space junk.
