Overhead platform for supporting equipment (6)

I believe the answer is:

gantry

(Other definitions for gantry that I've seen before include "Support for overhead work" , "Support for, eg, crane" , "Overhead structure for such as crane" , "Bridging framework to support crane, signals etc" , "Overhead structure supporting equipment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
