An orb of bright light hovering above Liverpool Cathedral left observers stumped.

Pictures taken by Kevin Kerwin, 54, show a large, bright object in the night sky.

Mr Kerwin, of St Andrews Gardens in the city centre, said he had returned from a late shift at work when he noticed the light, shortly before 1am on Monday morning.

He told the ECHO: "As soon as I got to the top of the stairs I saw this light over the cathedral; I couldn't give an exact distance.

"I watched it for a few minutes and I just thought what the bleeding hell's that?

"It didn't move so I knew it wasn't a plane and it wasn't a helicopter. I would love to know what it is."

Mr Kerwin said he watched the light for around eight to 10 minutes and said it remained stationary.

He said he did not believe it was a drone as it was too large.

Can you help Kevin solve the mystery?
