3 becoming 4 spinning symetrical lights perpendicular to the naked eye. Two converving and vice versaYesterday evening while leaving the house, walking towards my car I witnessed 3, becoming 4 circling symmetrical spinning lights. This was on a hill, got the starburst effect of the lights, all in orange colour. One light faded then re-appeared to the left of the others. I did not as I can't check if the same lighting effect occurred without glasses.There was no sound just 3 becoming 4 spinning and circling lights all perpendicular. Quite spectacular. I thought it may have been somebody creating a hoax but this was on a damp hill late at night on a steep gradient, although there is a chalk trench surrounding the hill halfway up for access..At first I thought it may have been done by circus performers. The hillside where it happened is Called: Castle Hill - part of the North Downs it has the nickname of Caesar's Camp (on top) and common folklore thinks it was used by the said Emperor.((name deleted)) Folkestone, Kent, England, UK.((NUFORC Note: We suspect the witness observed advertising lights. PD))
