It was the colour of red anodised aluminium and was just hanging in the sky, possibly moving away I could not tell but it was losing altitude my the looks of it.

I just stood there looking at it for about 45 seconds then it just disappeared instantly. All I could see in the area after that was a little bit of wavy black smoke.
