The lift was a challenge as the building has suffered so badly from the fire.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt\u2019s amazing to think that the bell tower has been in situ for almost 500 years before we carefully lifted it off. It is obviously very sad circumstances for all those who care about the hall but now that work has started, perhaps they can see the light at the end of the tunnel.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Paul Selby from The Friends of Wythenshawe Hall added: \u201cIt was quite a sight to see the bell tower removed from the hall and rather emotional for us. It was something which needed to happen in order for the next phases of the restoration to be undertaken.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe can\u2019t praise Ainscough\u2019s staff highly enough for the dedication, professionalism and precision with which they completed the lift.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cllr Sue Murphy, Deputy Leader of Manchester City Council, said: \u201cA huge amount of work has already gone into helping protect Wythenshawe Hall, most visibly the scaffold cocoon that is helping to stabilise the damaged areas of the property and will support the new temporary roofing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInside, countless hours have been spent making sure anything that can be saved is saved. Everything from the largest pieces of furniture that were on display in the building, to the smallest artefacts being unearthed by highly-trained archaeologists.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt will be a long road to recovery for the building, but working with our partners and the friends\u2019 group, we will see Wythenshawe Hall back to its best.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Market leading national lifting company, Ainscough Crane Hire, has provided a major boost to the restoration of a Tudor hall in Manchester which was partially destroyed by fire.
