Case · UFO Afrinews No 19, January 1999
Pauline Coombes and the light over Broadhaven
1979 ยท Broadhaven, St Brides Bay, west coast of Wales, United Kingdom
Outside the region. Hind reprinted this case from elsewhere; it has a file here but no place on the map.
What was reported
In her editorial on the Men in Black, Hind recalls the Broadhaven wave in St Brides Bay, Wales, which the British group BUFORA first investigated. Its trigger, as she tells it, was Pauline Coombes driving home with her children when they saw a strange light in the sky, the forerunner of many extraordinary events around Broadhaven. In the early 1980s Hind drove to the west coast of Wales with a friend hoping to meet Coombes, who was away at the time. She refers readers to three books on the wave, The Dyfed Enigma, The Uninvited and The Welsh Triangle, for the detail she does not give here.
What Hind made of it
Hind treats it as the opening of a wave she found fascinating enough to travel to Wales to investigate.
