What the record resolves

A suit

The record carries a garment, a helmet or an enclosure. The body inside it is not described.

Tall, in a metallic one-piece, face blank behind a dark visor. Pointed heads in one account only.

The record

An official file preserves that a report was made and examined. It does not, by itself, establish what was seen.

Part of the chain is attached. The rest is still being retrieved.

What is not settled

INVESTIGATION, not storage. But the enquiry was low-priority and the final P&SS report does not survive in the released files. The MoD record concludes a practical joker may be at work; a local Round Table member later confessed to prank appearances in a silver asbestos fire suit with a built-in helmet that made him look about 7ft tall - which matches the recorded morphology almost exactly.
