A CRANE is looming over Silver Hill today – but it does not mark the start of a controversial development in the area.
Rumours were rife on Winchester High Street this morning as the machine loomed over buildings due to be rebuilt as part of a £150 million revamp.
But it was brought in by Sainsbury's to replace its air conditioning.
Workers have been removing units and will be installing new ones later today.
Developer TH Real Estate expects to begin its contentious Silver Hill scheme by the end of December.
