According to the notice-board at 'A', this may also be known as Killamery Hill - a local I approached had clearly never heard of it called Faranaree before.
Followed mcrtchly's instructions from 'A'. From here ten or twelve minutes to the summit area. Set out after a fresh fall of snow. Time for the wellies: wonderful winter walking conditions Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1167/comment/23423/
