Farranfore

The village of Farranfore (Irish: An Fearann Fuar, meaning "the cold land") lies on the N22 road approximately half way between Tralee and Killarney and is also on the railway line connecting the two towns.

The village came into existence as a turnpike. A gate at the cross-roads in the village marked the boundary of the lands of the Earls of Kenmare.

Irish National Primary Road N22

The N22 is a major road in southwest Ireland, running for 116 km between Tralee and Cork, passing through counties Kerry and Cork. Since completion of the Tralee bypass in August 2013, the route has begun south of Tralee at the Camp Roundabout, end-point too of the N21 and N70.
