A HUGE bucket is filling up below a leaky ceiling in a Winchester High Street supermarket.

Upstairs in M&S, within the clothing area, is a cordoned-off zone with a big blue tub and seven smaller buckets catching water dripping from the ceiling light.

M&S employees were unaware of how long the leak had been going on and the store manager refused to comment.

An M&S spokesperson said: “M&S Winchester is open and serving customers as normal, however due to a small leak, we have temporarily closed a small section of the first floor. We are grateful to our customers for their understanding while our maintenance team works hard to fix this as quickly as possible."
