Low flying jets near Melton Mowbray

This morning, 1030 ish, we had two fast jets pass west of Melton Mowbray heading north (ish), turn NE and head off. Low level, so 250-300 feet agl I guess. No track on either FR24 or ADSB Exchange that I can find. Wondering if anyone know what they were?

Most likely just a detachment of 2FF2Rs.
They are the most often seen in those parts.
