I can only guess it was a small noctilucent cloud, since there's no trace
of anything like it tonight.

Need not have been noctilucent -- could have been an ordinary cloud
illuminated by town lights below.

There are no town lights below. I guess you really had to see it to
understand. There were plenty of clouds out that night, all of them dark,
obscuring much of the sky. This object was very bright, and not moving
with respect to the stars, while the clouds were.
