Popular Dublin boozer to close down as locals lament 'gentrification'

A popular pub in the Liberties is set to close the end of the week as locals lament "gentrification" of the area.

The Clock on Thomas Street has been serving punters fine pints of stout for generations and it is known as a locals spot. There has even been rumours they serve the best pint of Guinness in the country due to its proximity to St James' Gate.

The building that houses the pub has been sold which means the lease on the pub is void, according to a source. It is unclear whether the new owner plans to keep the pub as is.
