Question HUGE black hornet

Help Please, tonight in our house we found the most gigantic black hornet. It was way too big to be a wasp and the double body was fury. It flew like a bumble bee, kind of heavy and drunk like. I have spent ages trying to find similar on the net and can't and it is now sadly becoming more intimit with the drainage system in North Norfolk. It was about 4-5cm long and thick, not skinny like some of the hornets/wasp, and had a large stinger. From what we could tell it was black (or dark brown) all over, there were no discernable colour marks (red, orange, white) on it at all. It made a trumpet like noise when it flew which is what attracted my cat's attention to it. Can anyone help me with the name or what it is or anything?: confused:
