Welcome to the UFO-Warminster website.

This web site is intended to be the definitive site for information about the phenomenon that haunted the skies above the small, quiet, rural town of Warminster, in Wiltshire, during the 1960s and 1970s. Its aim it to be encyclopedic rather than analytical, although analytical -- and perhaps whimsical -- articles will be posted as and when.

The site is edited and hosted by Steve Dewey and Kevin Goodman.

Steve is the co-author, with John Ries, of In Alien Heat (Anomalist Books, 2006). This book is a historical and cultural appraisal of the Warminster phenomenon. Steve is sceptical about UFOs and other related phenomena.

Kevin Goodman is the author of UFO Warminster: Cradle of Contact. This book chronicles the events Kevin and his friends experienced in the town during the mid-1970s. Kevin has a more open mind on the Warminster mystery.

We have already placed scanned images of Ken Rogers’ Warminster UFO Newsletter and Peter Paget’s The Fountain Journal on the site. We hope to soon scan all issues of the newsletter produced by the UFO-Info organisation.

As to what caused the events around the town... who knows? Yet one thing is certain. Whatever the Warminster mystery was — UFOs, natural phenomena, the army, mass hysteria, or whatever you personally believe — the town was once the focal point for something interesting.

Wiltshire's Premier Paranormal Conference will be held at the Athenaeum Theatre in Warminster in August 2009. For details, visit the Weird 09 web site.
