Prince William and the UFO's

boasts just one pub, a convenience store, post office and two takeaways, an Indian and Chinese. Its local fish and chip shop hit the headlines last year following the murder of two brothers who lived above the property.

But perhaps Shawbury’s biggest claim to fame is that it is a UFO hotspot.

We previously revealed how a top Government official claimed flying saucers DID exist in official papers, after dozens of eyewitnesses reported a craft hovering over the village – including an officer from the RAF base.

A Head of Secretariat for the Ministry of Defence wrote to the Assistant Chief of Air Staff following the chilling encounter in March 1993 – and was convinced it was a genuine UFO.

He stated in an official document: “There would seem to be some evidence that an unidentified object (or objects) of unknown origin was operating over the UK.

“Some reports state that the object was moving at a very high speed, while others say that it was hovering or moving very slowly.

“Many of the reports refer to the object being very large, flying low and making a low humming sound.

“My staff have spoken to a number of the military and police witnesses, many of whom commented that the object was unlike anything they had ever seen before.

“And a Met officer at RAF Shawbury reported seeing the object projecting a narrow beam of light at the ground at a height of 400-500 feet.”

William had his first training flight last week. The Prince, whose codename at the air base is Golden Osprey, took off in a Squirrel, an elementary flying training helicopter with an instructor at his side – but there wasn’t a UFO in sight.
