Sighting Details
What did the UFO look like, shape/size in relation to terrestrial objects/lights/colour :
The object was a bright, reddish light travelling west to east, below cloud level. It did NOT have aircraft lights or flashing lights and did NOT make a sound. I am guessing that cloud level was perhaps 3000ft, but I stress that's a guess (mountains in the area are around 1,300ft). I have had a keen interest in aviation since a child and know what conventional aeroplanes and helicopters look and sound like, so I know it was neither of these. I also know what the International Space Station, meteorites etc look like. It was below cloud level, so was not an object in near Earth orbit. It was moving too slow to be a meteorite. The object travelled in a straight line. It's brightness did not alter during its approach, or as it was receeding. When it eventually reached a patch of cloudless sky, it faded. The fade lasted perhaps 10 seconds until it disappeared. The weather was patchy cloud with some light rain. It was a quiet night.
It didn't do anything strange.

Any additional comments :
In many respects, this object travelled in the same way that an aircraft would, but lacked all the give-away signs of night-time lights (coloured wing/tail lights, flashing lights). The fact that it was reasonably low yet emitted absolutely no noise was what fascinated me. I was able to get some footage on my mobile phone of the last 42 seconds of its flight which I will be uploading to YouTube.
