I went past the Chancery Place site this afternoon,and boards have now been put up,with that great render we have seen,,,i think this will be onsite before the year is out.
A new crane as gone up next to the Ovale apartments on Great Ancoats St,on the old Ian Skelly car showroom site. What's going there do we know?
