Could be the Stanta training area. Part of it borders the A11 to the
north of Roundham heath. There is a lot of activity at Stanta at the
moment.

There certainly is, but we can't see quite as far as Roudham or Great
Hockham (nearest points of the battle area to us) but I guess it could
have been a bigger, brighter exercise just a long way off. They got
through a LOT of illumination.
