A HUGE crane has been removed at the site of the historic York Guildhall - which is currently being restored and redeveloped. Work on the £20 million restoration project began in autumn 2019 and is due to be finished by the end of the year - around 12 months later than expected. The large tower crane was floated down the river by barge in January 2020 to do the heavy lifting for the development. City of York Council says the restoration of the Guildhall is set to be complete by the end of 2021 - about a year later than the predicted completion date of autumn 2020.
