Arthur Shuttlewood

Arthur Shuttlewood (1920–1996) was a British journalist, author and ufologist.

Shuttlewood was born in 1920 in Chelmsford, Essex. Shuttlewood moved to Warminster in 1940, and served in the Grenadier Guards and the Air Ministry Constabulary.

He had five children.

Shuttlewood died in Warminster in 1996. A local factory worker named Gordon Faulkner would take a photo of what he believed was a UFO. He gave it to Shuttlewood to "do as he seemed fit". Shuttlewood would hand the photo over to the Daily Mirror, who would give the sightings national attention, solidifying the name "Warminster thing". Around the same time, Shuttlewood began organizing sky-watching events in an attempt to see UFOs.
