According to https://bzzspotters.blogspot.com/2018/0 ... -2018.html ZZ173 was the only British C-17 flying that day.

Are you sure it was a C-17? ZZ173 flew to Iceland and didn't go anywhere near Longleat. However ZM418, an A400M was definitely in the right place at the right time as shown on this plot.

Hope that is helpful.
