Pub branches out with tree record

Staff at the Churchill Arms in Kensington — run for almost 30 years by manager Gerry O’Brien from Ogonnelloe, Co Clare — have erected 57 Christmas trees inside and outside the pub along with 11,500 lights.
This year’s record beats last year’s total of 50 trees and the pub garners more attention year-on-year as Gerry continues to add trees. This year he has added a reindeer called Dasher, as well as other decorations.
