Did you hear a strange noise over St Albans in the early hours of this morning (Thursday)?

There have been reports of a loud noise over Sopwell, near Sopwell House, at around 2am.

Lee Tyler was leaving his studio when he heard the sound, which he describes as similar to guitar feedback.

He said: "It was really loud.

"It sounded like really bad guitar feedback but very eery and the noise went from loud to quiet in a small matter of time making me think it was a moving sound."

Here is a sound recording of the noise.
